Natural Gas Leak Shuts Down Cantonment Neighborhood
October 29, 2018
A natural gas leak due to a broken gas main shut down a Cantonment neighborhood Monday afternoon.
A contractor struck a natural gas line in the area of Booker and Webb Streets in Cantonment about 1:10 p.m. A cloud of gas was visible escaping from the broken main.
At least two homes were evacuated, and traffic was blocked from entering the area as a precaution. There were no reported injuries.
Pensacola Energy stopped the leak about 1:45 p.m. The Cantonment Station of Escambia Fire Rescue and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded.
