AMARILLO, TEXAS -- Dish Network confirmed to Pronews 7 late Monday afternoon of a fiber cut affecting the Amarillo/Lubbock area.

According to a spokesman for Dish Network, a line owned by Sprint was cut. This means no local channels are available to the satellite subscribers.

Pronews 7 fans on Facebook say their Sprint lines are not working and local channels are not available on Dish Network.

Sprint says it does not at this time have a cause for the fiber line cut.

An estimated time for the fix has not been given although Sprint says it should be before the night is over.
