A driver is facing charges this morning after a weekend accident plunged part of the city's East End into darkness.

It happened just before 9 on Saturday night when a car snapped a hydro pole.  

That damaged a transformer and knocked out power to homes in the area of King East, Cochrane and Parkdale Avenue.  

Part of the road was closed until 8 yesterday morning.  

The uninjured driver has been charged with dangerous and impaired driving.
