CAÑON CITY, Colo. — KOAA News5 is not currently broadcasting in Cañon City due to a power issue.

According to our engineering team, a power line is down on the Colorado Department of Corrections property in the area and is awaiting a response from Black Hills Energy. Black Hills Energy tells us they are aware of the problem.

At this time KOAA has no control over the issue until Black Hills Energy responds.

Unfortunately, Black Hills Energy has not provided a timetable for when the broadcast will return to air at this point. That being said do not miss out on any of the local news that is important to you. Tune in to any News 5 streaming platform or our apps to catch all newscasts from the palm of your hand.

KOAA News5 will provide updates as we receive them.
