A tree entangled with primary power lines is reportedly down and blocking the roadway at 7444 Reuben Road on the Tonawanda Indian Reservation. Traffic is being shut down at Reuben and Ledge roads.
Alabama Fire Department is responding.
UPDATE 6:24 p.m.: A Sheriff's deputy on scene says the power lines are intact but they are pinned underneath the tree. National Grid is being contacted so it can shut off power on the lines and thereby enable crews to remove the tree.
UPDATE 8:41 p.m.: Power is restored, the tree is removed, the road is open and Alabama fire units are back in service.
