Chetwynd, B.C. –  It could be  4:00 this afternoon before  power is restored to a handful of  BC Hydro customers in Chetwynd.  The power has been off since about  8 last night.

That’s around the  time RCMP in Chetwynd got a number of calls about a dump truck, towing  two  trailers and one of the trailers was  raised, hooking on to the power lines in the parking lot of a 7-Eleven.

There were also reports that  power lines on Nicholson Road, near the 4800 block of North Access Road in  Chetwynd had been  pulled down.

A suspect vehicle was located,  tangled in power  lines.

The driver of the vehicle  is now the  focus of an impaired driving investigation.

Anyone who may have witnessed  the suspect vehicle being driven erratically is asked to contact the Chetwynd RCMP at 250-788-9221
