Beaverton power poles toppled by semi-truck; power restored by Saturday afternoon

A tractor-trailer struck a power line in downtown Beaverton, pulling down seven power poles and prompting a shelter-in-place for nearby businesses and homes. Beaverton police shut down streets as crews de-energized lines and repaired the damage. Portland General Electric said all affected customers had power restored by Saturday afternoon, after about 110 were initially without power and 99.99% were restored.
