Gas leak forces evacuation of homes
LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – Lexington police say homeowners have re-entered their residences after about 20 homes were evacuated because of a gas leak.
Police say the leak was at the intersection of Oak Hill Drive and Locust Avenue. According to Columbia Gas, construction crews in the area hit a two-inch plastic main line.
Homeowners still won’t be able to use any gas until repairs are complete. Once the line is repaired, officials will enter the homes and re-ignite pilot lights.
