SCHODACK - Police in Schodack have their hands full right now. There's a lot happening where Route 9 and Route 20 split. There is a traffic accident, wires are down and the power is out in that area.
Police say the downed wires sparked a brush fire as well. Students at Green Meadow Elementary School are going home early because of the power outage.
The Brookview neighborhood is also without power and so is the Schodack Police Department.
There is paving and construction work going on in the area. No word if the work had anything to do with the outage.

Author Maya Angelou dies at 86 in North Carolina
Angelou, a renaissance woman and cultural pioneer, died Wednesday at her home in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. She was 86.
Tall and regal, with a deep, majestic voice, she was unforgettable whether encountered in person, through sound or the printed word.
She called herself a poet, in love with the "sound of language," ''the music in language," as she explained to the AP in 2013. But she lived so many lives.
