Correction: This article has been updated to clarify a power line was downed and not a transmission line. 

A power outage that impacted several hundred homes in Middletown was caused by a downed transmission line.

The outage lasted about two hours and ended around 11:15 a.m. Wednesday, according PECO spokesperson Afia Ohene-Frempong.

A little more than 400 customers were left in the dark during the outage, Ohene-Frempong said.

LevittownNow.com readers and a PECO outage map indicated that the blackout hit customers surrounding Core Creek Park.
