Vandalism at three power substations in western #Washington early Sunday cut power to about 14,000 customers
Two of the break-ins were at Tacoma Public Utilities #TPU substations and the third was at a Puget Sound #Energy station #PSE
#Tacoma Public Utilities reported vandalism at about 5:30 a.m. at one #substation followed by vandalism at a second substation
Puget Sound Energy (PSE) also reported vandalism at about 2:30 a.m. causing a power #outage at one of its substations.
"There's a good possibility they are related, we are going to be investigating to see if this was coordinated by a specific group or people, but at this time all we know is that we have burglaries where the #power was purposefully knocked out"
