A squirrel is being blamed for a power outage Thursday morning that left more than 5,100 customers without electricity in the Henryetta area.

A spokesman for PSO says the squirrel somehow got into a substation in Henryetta, causing several relays to blow, causing the substation to shutdown.

PSO crews had power restored to all customers by 11 AM.
