"Unlikely Culprit: Bird-Dropped Fish Causes New Jersey Power Outage"
A power outage in Sayreville, New Jersey, was caused by an unusual culprit—a fish that was dropped by a bird and landed on a transformer. The outage affected around 2,100 customers for less than two hours. The area has a large population of ospreys, and the power company has an active program to protect these birds and their nests. Officials humorously referred to the fish as "the victim" and urged readers not to apprehend the bird suspect, who was last seen flying south.
