The lights are back on in Las Vegas, after a brief outage late on Mar. 18.

A transformer blew near an intersection on the strip, cutting power at four casinos, and trapping people in elevators.

The hotel towers at Mandalay Bay, Luxor, Excalibur and Four Seasons hotel were affected.

The casinos continued operating on backup generators.

Nobody was hurt.
