Fire At NV Energy Substation Knocks Out Power To Thousands
Surrounding Neighborhoods Evacuated As A Precaution
LAS VEGAS, NV (KXNT) - Thousands were left without power overnight after fire broke out at an NV Energy substation near Decatur and Silverado Ranch.
Many customers in the Southwest area of Las Vegas are without power due to a fire in one of our substations. While our crews are on scene working to restore power safely and as quickly as possible, some may experience an extended outage. We apologize for the inconvenience.
