More than 1,000 residents of East Hartford and Manchester are without power Wednesday evening while crews work to repair a broken utility pole in East Hartford, according to Eversource.
A representative for the power company said the broken pole is located near Oak Street in East Hartford. It's not clear what caused the pole to break.
Eversource said crews have been working for "some time" to make repairs. It's not clear how long it will take to fix the pole.
In the meantime, nearly 1,000 East Hartford residents and two dozen Manchester residents are without power, down from 400 earlier in the evening, according to Eversource.
