Power goes out briefly in North Havre this morning

NorthWestern Energy crews were at work replacing a power pole that was taken out by a fire this morning in North Havre on 1st Street West.

Butch Larcombe, a spokesperson for NorthWestern Energy, said that 150 people were out of power from 5 to around 8:15 a.m. this morning after an equipment failure started a fire on a power pole.

"They were able to reroute power to get people back in service," Larcombe said.

There was no estimation as to how long the replacement was going to take, said a NorthWestern Energy representative on the company's hotline.
