ORLANDO, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35) – Bright House Networks customers throughout Central Florida reported cable outages Friday evening. Beginning around 8:15 p.m. and lasting for about an hour, cable customers from Orlando to Ormond Beach and Ocala experienced intermitent outages and frozen images on their television sets.

“There is an issue with video right now,” said Bright House Networks spokesperon, Sara Brady adding that engineers were trying to identify the cause. There have been no reports of Internet or phone outages at this time.
