Codiac RCMP say a loud bang sound which was heard in northeast Moncton late this morning was likely from a nearby power transformer that blew up.
The neighbourhood did experience a brief power interruption around 10:30-am.
Police blocked off a portion of McLaughlin Drive near Beechwood Avenue for about two hours around lunch time to investugate after complaints about the loud sound were reported.
Officers secured a building where the noise reportedly came from but the blockade was eventually lifted.
No arrests were made in the incident.
