Bird leaves 6,000 Middle Tennessee Electric customers in the dark
A bird flying into MTEMC’s substation equipment caused approximately 6,000 members to lose power in northeast Rutherford County for about 30 minutes.
The bird disrupted MTEMC's Lascassas substation around 4:30 p.m., causing a short circuit.
MTEMC crews got the power back on by 5:00 p.m.
"We are sorry for the inconvience the outage caused for our members," MTEMC spokesperson Todd Palmer said. "Animal-caused interruptions are an unfortunate reality, but we're constantly examining ways to prevent them as much as possible."
