An SUV driving Campbellton Road in Atlanta hit an icy patch of road and flipped over, injuring one of the three occupants. Cold temperatures caused a patch of water on the road to freeze over, which ultimately caused the accident.
The Chevy Trailblazer lost traction on the icy surface and skidded into a power pole, knocking it over and tearing down wires. One of the passengers was rushed to the hospital.
According to police, a broken water pipe caused water to leak onto the roadway, where it froze over.
