TRAFFIC was snarled when a live wire was snagged by a backhoe in barangay San Isidro, San Fernando town, southern Cebu yesterday.

The incident took place at the site of an ongoing road-widening project, said PO3 Julius Cesar Arages, traffic investigator.

Police said the backhoe, operated by Armando Fernandez of WTC Construction Inc., hit the electric wire and pulled it down.
