Verizon spokesman Cliff Lee says a construction crew working on 58th Street between Lexington and Third avenues yesterday cut into a cable underground, causing the disruption. It's unclear how many customers have experienced problems. Police say thousands of people have been affected. Lee says Verizon has received about 400 calls from customers having difficulty. Repair crews are working at the scene. The affected area is between Third and Fifth avenues from 57th to 65th streets. (Copyright 2002 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
