Over 9,200 AEP customers were without service, Friday afternoon.

Much of the city of Chillicothe was without electricity Friday afternoon, due to a massive power outage. American Electric Power says over 9,200 customers were without service after a lightning strike at a substation.

The outage snarled traffic in much of the city's downtown area- stretching to Main Street, as traffic lights went dark.

Service was restored by 5:40pm..
