DENNISON, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – Major disruptions in the Tuscarawas County village of Dennison on Tuesday.
A five-to-six block area around a natural gas leak in downtown Dennison had to be evacuated.
That included a couple of nearby school buildings.
It was an eight-inch main gas line hit by the contractor working on a revitalization project.
Natural gas distribution company Enbridge was contacted.
Repairs on the line took a number of hours.
That leak happened right in front of Village Hall which is at Grant and 3rd Streets.
No injuries were reported.
