MIAMI (AP) - Widespread power outages are being reported around
southern Florida, including parts of Miami.
Reports say areas of Miami, Doral, Westchester and Pembroke
Pines are without power as well as the Port of Miami. Police
officers on live television are seen directing traffic at
intersections in downtown Miami. Many stop lights are out and some
stores have closed because they are without power.
A Miami-Dade Police Department spokesman tells WSVN-TV that they
are working with Florida Power & Light to access the situation. It
is unclear how many customers are affected.
An FPL spokeswoman told The Miami Herald the company is
investigating the problem.
