Breaking News: City Center Blackout at 4:32 PM
Okay, so things got *really* weird around 4:32 PM today, April 30th, 2025. I was just finishing up a story about the new dog park opening downtown when – boom! – everything went dark. Total blackout. Phones went dead, computers crashed... the whole nine yards.
Honestly, it was pretty unsettling. People started shouting, you know? There was this mass confusion, like a scene from a movie. I saw a few people using their phone flashlights to navigate, and it felt surreal. I'm still not sure what exactly happened. Power surge? Planned outage that nobody told anyone about? It’s all a bit of a mystery right now.
Emergency services are on the scene. They're working to restore power and assess the situation. I'm hearing reports of some minor injuries, mostly from people tripping in the dark, but nothing major (knock on wood). I’ll update this story as soon as I get more information. I honestly feel like we're all just holding our breath until the lights come back on!
Update: Power has been partially restored in some areas. More to come.
