East Lyme -- A section of Main Street in Niantic was closed for a period of time Monday from Methodist Street to Pennsylvania Avenue after a van struck a utility pole.
The 10:30 a.m. crash caused three transformers to spill their oil. East Lyme Public Works employees built a dirt berm to prevent the spill from spreading. Utility crews also responded to repair the damage.
