Nearly 1,000 people without power Tuesday afternoon saw their electricity returned in about two hours, Entergy said in a website press release.

A spokesman for the energy conglomerate was not available to discuss the cause of the outage in the Oak Park, Old Highway 27 and Gibson Road areas, but Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace said his office had no reports of trees down or an accident that would have caused the outage.

The outage struck at about 2 p.m.
