Crane Accident Leaves Hundreds Without Power
PG&E said power was expected to be restored to all customers affected in San Bruno and South City by Tuesday.
Several hundred PG&E customers were left without power in South San Francisco and San Bruno on Monday in an outage that impacted Caltrain service as well, a PG&E spokeswoman said.
A crane in the area of Huntington Avenue and Angus Avenue West took down power lines at around 9:30 p.m. in San Bruno, PG&E spokeswoman Jana Morris said.
Two lines went across the nearby Caltrain track, setting back train service for about an hour. Train service was restored at 10:30 p.m., Morris said.
