Cass County family still without power ten days after storm

 

JONES, Mich – A Cass County family is still without power 10 days after the October 20^th storm.

“It’s been hell here really I mean we are having a hard time being able to feed the kids we’re having to use a generator for this little bit of power here,” Tonya Newman said.

The Newman family said during the October 20^th storm the power lines came down knocking their power out.

Newman said she contacted I&M to have her service restored but repairs haven’t been made yet.

Since the Newman family lost power they’re relying on a generator that they say is costly to fuel.

ABC57 reach out to I&M who said: “I&M is aware and is working directly with the customer to safely address the issue with the customer’s property and related service in question.”

Newman says I&M has since reached out to her and they’re working on a time to successfully restore service.
