This squirrel was literally cooked from the inside out when it shorted out the high tension lines that service iRobot. Shortly after 3:30PM power to the entire facility was knocked out. It was not difficult to determine the cause as the aroma of cooked meet could be traced to the base of the pole which carries the electrical wires which service the building.

With an estimated repair time of 2 hours, employees were advised to leave early for the day. Given the continued perfect fall weather this was a most welcomed gift. I am only sorry that it came at the expense of an innocent life.
