A squirrel caused a power outage Tuesday morning for about two hours in the Fleetwood Subdivision in Victoria.

About 5:40 a.m., the rodent caused the problem on an electrical line, cutting power to about 38 customers, said Elgin Janssen, American Electric Power spokesman.

Power was restored about 7:30 a.m.
