Fox News
The Pierce County Sheriff's Office in Washington said three substations were broken into and vandalized on Christmas, leaving 14,000 customers without power.
When deputies arrived, a statement from the department read, they saw evidence that a fenced area was broken into. While nothing was taken from the substation, police said equipment was vandalized, causing a power outage in the area. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
Another burglary was reported later that morning at a Tacoma Public Utilities substation on 224th Street, again with forced entry and damage to the equipment, and nothing stolen from the scene.
