Kitty Hawk Police Chief Joel Johnson said the driver of the vehicle had a medical emergency, which led to the collision with a Dominion Power service box on the ground near Duck Woods Drive.
Johnson said the driver was taken to The Outer Banks Hospital for treatment, while a passenger was not hurt. Power was restored around 6 p.m.
