PHOENIX — One person is dead and two others are hurt after a car crashed into a power pole early Saturday morning in west Phoenix.

Phoenix police say it happened around 3:15 a.m. near 43rd Avenue and Thomas Road.

When officers arrived, they found a single car involved, with a woman and two men hurt in the vehicle.

All three were transported to the hospital in critical condition.

The woman later died from her injuries at the hospital.

Both men are expected to survive.

Video from the scene showed the car had rolled over and appeared to hit the power pole.

Almost 200 customers in the area lost power because of the crash, according to SRP. It has since been restored.

Police believe impairment may have been a factor, but are continuing to investigate what led up to the crash.
