The lights are back on in Stevens Point, after about three-thousand electric customers lost power from a truck and train crash. Police say a semitruck was driving north when it was hit by a westbound train that dragged the rig for about 30 feet — and the truck hit part of an auto body shop. Media reports say traffic control gates at the crossing were working at the time — and the semitruck driver was taken to a hospital to be treated for minor injuries. The crash happened just after 11:10 Saturday night, and the cause is still being investigated.
