MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin A manhole explosion caused by an underground cable failure left 4,500 people in Milwaukee and Shorewood without power for about an hour (Saturday). "Engine 47 at Park and Murray. We have a manhole cover that blew off of the ground. Sounds like there may be an electrical fire going on underneath. And there is power lost for about two blocks going east and west on Park.” We Energies said the underground cable failed around 5 p.m., and crews made repairs, restoring power about an hour later. The incident occurred near Park & Prospect, where residents reported hearing what sounded like an explosion. "I went to go back home again and boom! Like, four feet of flames. And the manhole went like psshh," Fitzgerald Scott said. "I'm still shaken, because it was crazy, man." https://www.yahoo.com/news/videos/power-outage-impacts-thousands-milwaukee-033912407.html
