A 5,000-volt transformer short circuited in the basement of Copley Manor Apartments, 121-123 Tulpehocken St., late Tuesday night, causing the residents to be evacuated.
A dozen residents were evacuated to Germantown High School, 40 E. High Street.

PECO restored power to the apartment building just before 4 a.m. on Wednesday and residents were allowed to return home.
