Failed Cable Causes Brief Power Outage At Cromwell, Flamingo

The power was out for about three hours at the Flamingo and The Cromwell.

Caesars Entertainment owns the two properties and says in a statement that no one was injured during the outage.

NV Energy says the power was restored around 5:30 p.m.
