(Trail Creek, IN) - There was a natural gas leak this afternoon in Trail Creek at Johnson Road and Coolspring Avenue.
NIPSCO was at the scene working to shut off the gas. Coolspring Township Fire Capt. Rick Bradford says the gas was from an underground line. The leak was discovered after a passerby noticed the smell of natural gas about 3:30 p.m.
He says the intersection is closed and likely will be for a couple of more hours until NIPSCO uncovers the broken line and fixes it. Bradford says what caused the line to break is not yet known. A few buildings in the area were evacuated as a precaution.
No injuries were reported.
