(KSL News) Live power lines littered the street near 3000 South and West Temple this afternoon.
A crane truck had its boom out too far, causing it to catch on the power line as it drove by.
The lines carried about 70-thousand volts of electricity when they came down.
Lines fell on cars, buildings and fences and even burned part of the road.
No one was injured.
