Power Outage Caused By Raccoon
AURORA, Colo. (CBS4) - A raccoon is to blame for a power outage that left 2,700 people in the dark Friday morning.
Copter4 captured images at 6:10 a.m. of the neighborhoods in Aurora that were affected.
Xcel Energy officials say the animal got into some equipment at a substation. That knocked power out to homes, businesses and some traffic lights.
Power was restored by 7 a.m.
