LEBANON - UPDATE @ 11:32 p.m.: Internet and phone provider CenturyLink is reporting that outages in Lebanon, in southwest Ohio, have been traced to a fiber damaged in Dayton, the county's emergency services director said in a prepared statement.

The fiber "runs under a creek and they may have to bore under the creek to make repairs," the county's director, Melissa Bour, said in her statement. "This could be a lengthy repair and run through the night and into the early morning hours," she said.
