Steinbach Fire Department responded to a downed hydro line Friday morning.
Assistant Deputy Fire Chief Mike Penner says they were called to 361 Third Street shortly before 9:30.
He explains crews using a bucket truck were doing work in the area and snagged a power line to a residence. This caused the line to arc against the house and pull the mast off the building.
Penner says there is a slight smell of smoke in the house.
Third Street between Barkman and Lumber was closed to traffic while Manitoba Hydro reconnected the line to the house.
