On July 12th residents of the Lake Beseck area were dishearten to experience yet another power outage. After hurricanes Sandy and Irene, plus the surprise snow storm of October 2012 residents of the area are familiar with long duration power outages. Some residents had their generators running in moments.  Other residents resigned themselves to the darkness of the evening.

On the condition of animity, a CL&P employee told MI that a trio of zombies were found chewing on the cables around a transformer. Police were called in, but before they arrived the electrical current destroyed the creatures as they chewed through the cables.  When their bodies burst into flames, the fire department was called. CL&P had the power restored within a couple of hours.
