Approximately 107 PUC customers were without power today in the downtown area. 

The unplanned outage began at 1:12 p.m., impacting customers near Bay Street.

It appears to have been resolved as of 2:04 p.m.

PUC reminds customers:

• Downed wires should always be considered energized or "live," and extremely dangerous
• Do not approach or drive over a downed power line and do not touch anything the power line may be in contact with
• Parents are encouraged to talk to their children about powerline safety and the dangers that can be associated with power lines
• Take all the necessary safety precautions during a power outage
