BEECH ISLAND, S.C. -- Deputies say one person has been taken to the hospital after being trapped inside a vehicle Saturday evening.

The accident happened around 9:45 p.m. on Pine Log Road near Storm Branch Road in Aiken County.

We're told the vehicle hit a power pole, which caused some power outages in the area.

SCE&G reported almost 800 people were out of power as of 11 p.m., but half of them were restored by 1 a.m.

The power company says all of the outages were restored Sunday morning.
