HENRIETTA, N.Y. — Over 1,000 people had their power knocked out in the Henrietta area after a crash that brought down power lines overnight.

News10NBC’s photojournalist saw the front end of a red car smashed at Scottsville-West Henrietta Road and Moore Road. The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office shut down that area, starting just before 1 a.m., as crews work to make repairs.

Nearly 700 people are still without power as of 7 a.m., according to RG&E’s website. We’ve reached out to deputies to learn if anyone was hurt and when the road will reopen. Check back for updates.
