WALTHAM, MA - On February 22nd, Waltham Fire received a call for a truck that hit a utility pole in front of 251 Trapello Road. Engine 8 responded and found a utility pole down with live wires pulled from the Lawrence School, which was vacant. Also, a traffic signal, split rail fence, and a fire hydrant were destroyed. After hitting all these things, the driver skidded 100-feet before stopping. He was uninjured, but Trapello Road was closed for several hours.
