Police Chief Darren McConnell tells redbankgreen that a 2016 Chrysler driven by Christy Burke, 33, of Belford, struck the pole, located at the corner of Wallace Street, at 1:45 a.m., sheering it at its base.
Burke, the sole occupant of the car, was charged with DWI, McConnell said. The accident was investigated by Patrolman Darren McConnell, the chief’s son.
