Transformer Crash Knocks Out Power

Power outage hits Carnegie hard after a transformer crash on West Main Street, plunging Irishtown, parts of West Main, Cubbage Hill, and the Borough Building into darkness. Mayor Sam Bigham confirmed Duquesne Light is on-site, but repairs—including replacing poles and the transformer—could take up to a full day. Over 1,300 customers remain without power as crews work to restore electricity. The outage underscores just how much our daily lives depend on a steady grid. Updates coming as restoration progresses.
