In news footage, a vehicle is seen driving through a cordoned-off area toward firefighters responding to a 9-1-1 call about fallen power lines near Dunbar Street and Southwest Marine Drive.

The driver was issued a violation ticket under the Motor Vehicle Act for “drive without reasonable consideration,” which carries a $196 fine.
