PRAIRIEVILLE - More than 500 Entergy customers in Ascension Parish were in the dark — and the heat — after an outage Sunday night. 

The power went out shortly before 5:30 p.m. after an underground cable failed near Bluff Road and Manchac Road. Power has since been restored to the area. 

The company said it was unrelated to a widespread outage in New Orleans that knocked out power for more than 100,000 residents in Orleans and the surrounding parishes.
