(KLZA)-- A majority of Falls City went several hours without electricity Thursday evening.
City utility crews eventually determined a squirrel got into a substation at the power plant on south Crook Street causing damage to several electrical circuits.
Power was restored to most customers between 9 and 10:00 p.m., but later Thursday city crews had to cut electrical service to repair the last circuit.
