Tensions reached a boiling point in Neon Quarters last night after widespread energy outages left thousands without power. Angry residents clashed with corporate security forces deployed by Nexarch Industries to protect grid repair teams.
Eyewitnesses reported scenes of chaos as drones patrolled the area, dispersing protesters with stun beams. Residents blame Nexarch for prioritizing corporate facilities over civilian needs. Nexarch spokespeople deny the allegations, attributing the outages to unregistered power siphoning by underground tech gangs.
