A driver struck a utility pole Friday night in Bridgeport, but it did not cause any power disruptions in the area.

It happened just before 10:30 p.m. at Fairfield Avenue and Poland Street.

A News 12 viewer who sent in video said he heard the crash from inside his home and went outside to see what happened.

Police say Fairfield Avenue was shut down while repairs were made. The road has since reopened.

There were no injuries reported and no word on the circumstances surrounding the crash.
