The outage was reported at 10:29 a.m. and affected 7,350 customers, according to officials at Southern California Edison. Crews were dispatched and quickly restored power to some customers, but many more were still left in the dark.
The squirrel fell into some equipment at a San Dimas substation, causing the outage.
As of 1:10 p.m., under 800 customers are still without power, officials said.
It was unknown how big of an area was affected by the outage.

I called the non-emergency # for the Glendora Police Dept. and the operator told me 'they' knew…Read More nothing about the explosion.
Then I told her I had 'just read' on Patch that a Glendora Police Officer had told a resident that it probably was an industrial fire cracker, but I 'thought' it was way too massive for that. The operator had 'nothing' more to say.

Amen to you both. I have seen several streets in Glendora that could use repair. I was recently…Read More driving in cities with much fewer resources and and smaller budgets than Glendora wondering why their roads are better than ours. Maybe we need to start with Grand and go from there....
