Virginia Beach, Virginia - Malfunctioning equipment on North Lynnhaven Road near Mustang Trail left 4,500 people in the Lynnhaven area without power around 4:30am Wednesday, according to a Dominion Power spokesperson.

Dominion workers restored power to about half of those people shortly after 5:00am by switching them to an alternate feed.

Crews were able to repair the equipment and the rest of the customers were restored around 6:00am.

Around the same time customers in the Lynnhaven area were restored, crews responded to the Sandbridge area where 873 people lost power.

Dominion has not named a cause for the second outage.
