California governor pleads with residents to stop targeting utility workers foxnews.com

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is urging residents across the state to not threaten or harass workers with Pacific Gas & Electric as angry customers continue to vent their frustrations about the utility's widespread power outages aimed at preventing wildfires. 
Some PG&E workers have reported objects being thrown at them and damage to offices and company vehicles.

“They’re your community members. They send their kids to the same school you send your kids to,” Newsom said during a news conference in El Dorado County on Thursday. “They didn’t create this mess. They’re trying to fix it.”
