The guy wires were cut on the Grundy County tower in Tracy City, causing the structure to topple over.

Police said the tower fell down late Friday or early Saturday.

The company that owns the structure is working to get temporary cell phone service to a nearby tower.

Service isn't expected to be fully restored for another two weeks.
