(Crankers) Whoever turned the power off to save this woman’s life probably didn’t think this was on their bingo card that day, but here we are. This woman was suffering a mental breakdown and climbed on a power substation transformer in Salt Lake City.
Salt Lake City Police responded to the call about a woman trespassing on the property and someone cut the power, turning off electricity to over 800 people’s homes. But it’s all good because the woman is recovering from whatever episode she was suffering. Some think it was because Trump won the election, but who even cares about why she did it. How about get your silly ass off the power grid?
A report on Yahoo News had a witness account from Ryan Kent. He saw what happened as people were gathering around and hoping the woman was OK. Authorities surrounded the woman and tried to get her down into a cherry picker truck, but that’s when she grabbed a wire and was climbing all over it like a stripper. The law enforcement shot her with a non-lethal round and she let out a “yelp” according to the Yahoo News report. The report further said:
A woman is now receiving treatment after she damaged power equipment and climbed a substation transformer in Salt Lake City Wednesday morning during what police say was a mental health episode.
The incident, which took place near Gladiola Street and Decade Drive, led to authorities cutting power to more than 800 homes to prevent the woman from being electrocuted. According to the Salt Lake City Police Department, the alleged trespasser was taken into custody and transported to the hospital.
