NYC Blackout

Explosions at power stations and gas pipelines occur simultaneously with the malfunction of nearby hydroelectric stations, causing a 7 day summer blackout in New York City in which thousands of people, mostly elderly, die of heat stroke and heat exhaustion.
The rolling blackouts continue for 17 days.
LEFR claims the blackout and subsequent destruction of energy monitoring devices in the NYC area are a retaliation in response to the events at Waco and other smaller similar events around the world.
