The entangled truck.

By Globe Staff

It used to work for Wile E. Coyote when he wanted to build up some speed. But getting caught in utility wires was no laughing matter this morning for the driver of a moving van in West Roxbury.

The van was snared and tipped slightly by low-hanging utility wires on Tarleton Road as it turned off Temple Street.

Police at the scene said it appeared that digging on a nearby house lot had affected one of the poles supporting the wires, causing the wires to droop.
