A fire erupted at an electrical substation in Royton, Oldham, sending flames and smoke sky-high and triggering loud explosions heard by locals. Two fire engines raced to the scene, dousing the blaze with dry powder extinguishers—no injuries reported. The incident knocked out power for over 100 homes, with 147 still without electricity due to damage to a high-voltage cable. Fire crews worked alongside the power company for about an hour to secure the area before departing. As crews clean up, the power company vows to restore service as quickly and safely as possible—another reminder of how fragile our infrastructure can be.
