A telephone service outage impacting parts of North Douglas County has been restored.
An update from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office said customers of CenturyLink in the Yoncalla, Elkton, Scottsburg, Drain and Loon Lake areas lost their phone service around 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday. That may have prohibited them from dialing 9-1-1 to summon emergency services from a landline, though those with cellular service may have been able to get through.
