Posted • November 16, 2024: Utah Woman Brings TDS To A Whole New Level After Climbing Onto Power Transformer, Screaming About Not Being Safe Before Knocking Out Power For Nearly 1k People — A Utah woman left over 800 people without power for hours after she climbed a substation transformer and damaged equipment during a 'mental health episode'. Witness Ryan Kent revealed that the unidentified trespasser had managed to stand on top of the transformer and was 'scream obscenities'. He recalled hearing the troubled resident yell about 'how the world was no longer safe for her or future children', according to ABC 4 News. Kent also saw a smashed circuit box and a pipe near the scene as multiple police cars continued to pull up to the Rocky Mountain Power electric grid near Gladiola Street and Decade Drive. As a result, deputies from The Salt Lake City Police Department were forced to cut power to more than 800 homes in the area to ensure she was not electrocuted during the incident.
