INDIANAPOLIS - Utility crews are working to restore power to hundreds of Indiana homes and businesses still in the dark following severe thunderstorms that brought high winds and heavy rains to the state.

But by Saturday afternoon, just 900 customers remained without power. Duke Energy reported about 400 customers without power as of early Saturday afternoon.
