DELRAN, N.J. (UPI) -- A dump truck in New Jersey had its rig hoisted into the air after the driver drove too close to a row of electrical wires.

Delran Township Police Department shared a photo of the truck as its rig became entangled in the electrical wires, shutting down traffic in the area.

Police said the driver forgot to lower the rear of his truck while pulling out of a local road on Friday morning and got caught in the utility wires, leaving at least half of its wheels lifted off the ground, NJ.com reported.

 

The driver was not injured but Verizon, which owns the wires, will be responsible for determining how to remove the wires without endangering anyone nearby.
