Downed power lines tie up road
A portion of Santiago Canyon Road was expected to remain closed through the night Wednesday as crews worked to restore power lines blown down by high winds.
About 20 motorists were stopped for 45 minutes after the two lines went down about 6:50 p.m., a quarter-mile east of Jamboree Road. The vehicles were eventually backed out and redirected.
There were reports of a power outage, Orange Police Department Lt. Brad Davis said, but it was unclear how widespread it was.
