Power Plant Explosion Leaves Thousands In Dark

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- An explosion at a power station early Monday sent fireballs into the sky and knocked out electricity to about 35,000 customers.

Investigators said two transformers blew up when two power lines touched. Firefighters using foam had the blaze under control in about two hours.

Six families were forced from their homes while officials checked for dangerous fumes, and several schools without power were closed. The families were allowed to return home within an hour of the 5:30 a.m. blast at American Electric Power.(snip)
