Photos for the week ending December 11, 2009

Staff photos from the editorial files of The Newtown Bee.

A portion of Sandy Hook lost power Wednesday morning following two transformer explosions on Riverside Road, just above its intersection with Sunnyview Terrace. The explosions occurred shortly before 8 am after a tree branch hit a wire. Smoke from one of the transformers can be seen near the low trunk of the pine trees on the left. The road was closed by Sandy Hook firefighters and CL&P was called to the scene. The road reopened just before 10 am. (Hicks photos)
