A Toyota Corolla was speeding when the driver lost control and hit a power pole — shearing it in half — at Santiago Canyon Road just east of the 241 Toll Road shortly before 4 a.m. The driver suffered a broken collarbone and was taken to Orange County Global Medical Center for treatment. AdvertisementThe Orange County Fire Authority used air drops and hand crews to battle the blaze and by about 6 a.m. had stopped forward progress of the fire. The blaze prompted the closure of Santiago Canyon Road from the 241 to Loma Ridge Road. Live Oak Canyon Road to the 241 Freeway was accessible only to residents.
