Tree falls on electric power lines

A tree fell onto electric power lines last night and service was lost to Duke Energy Lake Keowee residents near Seneca.  A Duke spokesman said the tree fell at the entrance to Pinnacle Point and it was necessary for crews to take down a circuit to make repairs.  It’s believed as many as 3,000 customers saw their power interrupted.  At one home, there were three separate outages between midnight and 8 a-m.
