The outages initially were being reported about 5:20 p.m.

The area of the damage is just south of Trotwood Boulevard and DP&L crews have been able to restore power to about 1,025 customers in the last several minutes, Tatham said.

According to Montgomery County Regional Dispatch, at least one traffic signal is out in the area of Little Richmond and Olive roads. Tatham said that can be attributed to the outage in the area.
