Brief Power Outage On Ansonia’s Hilltop Monday Morning

About 90 people in Ansonia lost power Monday (Oct. 27) morning for about an hour.

A United Illuminating spokesman said a tree came into contact with power lines on Benz Street about 8:50 a.m., tripping a fuse.

UI reported 88 customers lost service during the outage.

A UI crew went to the scene, reset the fuse, and power was restored to the area about 10 a.m.
