Power Outage at RTC West Being Investigated

Fairfax County Fire and Rescue crews are at RTC West, where they say an “electrical issue” has knocked out power.

The issue is affecting operations at Cooper’s Hawk Winery and Restaurant (12130 Sunset Hills Road), which will be closed until the situation is alleviated. The office buildings at RTC West, 12100-12120 Sunset Hills Road, are also without power.

The power went out at about 1:10 p.m.

Our readers said lights flickered in other nearby areas around that time, but electricity returned immediately.
