Parts of east Pasco were without power for several hours on Thanksgiving.

The outage extended from A Street north to Clark Street and from First Avenue west to 13th Avenue, Franklin Public Utility District spokeswoman Stacey Azure said. One of the agency’s feeders has been out since about 11:30 a.m. Thursday. Power was restored by 3:30 p.m.

Franklin PUD had 541 customers without power, Azure said.

Tri-City Union Gospel Mission in downtown Pasco served its Thanksgiving meal despite the power being out, according to its Facebook page.

Police received calls from east Pasco and the downtown area, Sgt. Rodrigo Pruneda said. No issues were reported west of 20th Avenue.
