Birds To Blame For Power Outage In Downtown OKC

Wednesday, September 19th 2012, 6:32 pm

By: News 9

It seems avian attackers were the cause behind a power outage in downtown Oklahoma City that left about 1,500 customers without power, Wednesday evening.

An OG&E spokesman tells News 9 birds caused some kind of mechanical failure in a transformer that started the problem.

Power has since been restored.
