More than 14,000 Entergy Louisiana customers lost power Tuesday evening.

The outages largely affected Metairie east of Causeway.

The outage began around 5:30. By 6:20, the power company's outage web site was showing most customers had been restored.

Jefferson Parish Councilmember Scott Walker said on social media that it was due to a transformer issue at a substation.
