Power has been restored after an outage Wednesday afternoon affected about 8,000 customers near UNLV and 27 buildings at the university’s main campus.

NV Energy spokeswoman Jennifer Schuricht said via email that the outage started at 2:30 p.m. due to a cable failure and power was restored at 3:55 p.m.

An announcement on UNLV’s website said the outage was near campus south and north of Flamingo Road.
