It’s been a rough week for Oregon Hill and the City in general.

The water crisis has lead to several pipe breaks around the city, including one on S. Laurel Street.
Residents are thankful that it is being addressed quickly, despite the falling snow.

Also, a driver reportedly ran into and knocked down two streetlights along Belvidere. They first slammed into the one at the end of Albemarle Street and then must have drove off and hit another one at the end of Spring Street. Both streetlight poles are down and residents have dragged them off the street for safety’s sake.

One resident reported it was a dark red SUV and the incident had smashed the front headlight out on the passenger side.
