BATON ROUGE - Downed power lines closed a busy intersection and left a block of Government Street without power Friday morning.

Pictures show power lines and equipment blocking South Foster Drive just off Government Street. It is currently unconfirmed what caused the downed lines, but witnesses at the scene suspect drag racers crashed into the poles.

The Entergy map shows outages around Baton Rouge Community College and the YMCA on South Foster Drive. The map also shows an estimated repair time of noon on Friday.




Massive power outage caused by BR street racers

They were probably late to their night classes at BRCC. Give ‘em a break!

There needs to be more take downs of these idiots.

It’s a matter of time before those power poles are an innocent driver of person walking

The favorite car for criminals. Challenger and Camaro are in a distant second followed by the Chrysler 300.

What’s the point of adding photos from April to the OP?

But if you read Facebook, the idiots will claim there is no reason to mess with these idiots because at least they’re not shooting someone.

Currently there is a waiting list for power poles and the associated hardware for mounting transformers to them. There is a shortage of new transformers also.
If these guys want to race there is the State Capitol Dragway out west on US 190 near Erwinville. They even sell concessions there.

Would love to know exactly how this or these idiots will get their cars fixed after that.

It isn’t about racing, it’s about doing illegal shite and getting away with it

Is this a black thing, or is it diverse like on Fast and the Furious?
