FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): It’s now safe to drink and cook with tap water in Fort Wayne again.

A boil water advisory was issued for a large portion of the city Friday after a power surge at the American Electric Power/I&M substation near Lawton Park caused an outage at the Three Rivers Water Filtration Plant. The advisory was a precautionary measure due to a 60-second loss of water pressure.

Now City spokesman Frank Suarez says tests completed on drinking water today show the water is free from any contamination and is safe to use.
