A two-car crash sent a light pole toppling into lanes of Pacific Coast Highway Monday afternoon in Long Beach, but nobody was hurt, according to authorities.

The crash happened a few minutes before 3 p.m. on PCH near Gundry Avenue, which is just south of Long Beach City College’s Pacific Coast Campus.

Police couldn’t immediate provide any details about what caused the crash, but at least one of the cars slammed into the pole, sending it and debris into the eastbound lanes of PCH.

Crews were still working to haul away the pole and completely reopen the streets about an hour later.
