FirstEnergy release the following statement about the outages:
We understand how disruptive and frustrating a power outage can be — especially during a heat wave — and we sincerely appreciate our customers’ patience as crews work to restore service. The outages in the Olmsted Falls area were caused by a pole fire, along with an equipment issue at a nearby substation. We have restored power to about half of the customers impacted and our crews will be working around the clock to restore power to the remaining customers.
