DESTIN - About 1,200 Gulf Power customers lost electricity power Saturday morning after a car hit a utility pole along U.S. Highway 98 near Benning Drive.
One vehicle was involved in the 4:30 a.m. crash and no one was injured, according to the Destin Fire Department.
Gulf Power crews worked into the afternoon to make repairs. They closed one lane to make room for their equipment, which slowed eastbound traffic.
Electricity was restored to all customers by 2:43 p.m., according to Gulf Power spokesman Jeff Rogers.
The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office was investigating the crash.
