This report live from the scene from correspondent John Wolff.

No lives were lost nor injuries reported when a powerful aerospace vehicle collided with high-voltage Seattle City Light power lines at Northeast 97th Street and 8th Avenue Northest at about 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 20.

Hundreds of thousands of people in the north Seattle area suffered no interruption in electrical power. The accident was attributed to unexpectedly high winds during an experimental rocket launch. One Maple Leaf resident is missing, but “He’s probably still walking the dogs,” said a concerned neighbor.

Authorities issued the customary blandishments that no radiation was released, and there was no danger to the public.

“The best-laid plans of mice and men, and Cub Scouts,

“Gang aft agley

“And leave us nought but grief and pain

“For promised joy.”

(Editor’s note: With apologies to Robert Burns.)
