A Comcast outage in southeast Albuquerque affected nearly 15,000 people, starting Monday night and continuing into Tuesday afternoon. The outage was caused by damage to a fiber line by a third-party utility, according to Comcast spokesperson Kyle Biederwolf. The damaged site was deemed safe for repair at 12:45 a.m., with initial expectations of service restoration by overnight, then by 3:40 p.m. Tuesday, but the restore time was pushed to early evening.
