(KAIR)--Atchison area residents, on Thursday, found themselves without AT&T internet due to a disruption in the service.
An AT&T spokesperson, Thursday evening, confirmed it was a jobsite accident that led to the outage, which is now remedied. “Internet service is restored in the Atchison area. Our technicians worked quickly to restore service after contractors from another company damaged our fiber line. We thank our customers for their patience.”
According to an AT&T outage map early Thursday afternoon, the problem affected all Atchison customers, as well as those in nearby locations, such as Winthrop, Missouri.
