An accident near Vineville Avenue has caused some injuries and knocked out power for about 180 homes.

The accident happened just before 9 a.m. near the Georgia Academy for the Blind.

Georgia Power spokeswoman Lynn Wallace said the number of those without power has dropped to 20, saying power has been diverted from other places. She said power should restored to all customers by noon.

A Macon police dispatcher said there are some injuries. She had no further information on the accident, but said Georgia Power has been called due to a car hitting a power pole.
