Incident # 20-07001 - A utility contractor broke a residential gas line in the 400 block of Tulip Drive Tuesday morning 13-October at 09:54. The pressurized line leaked natural gas into the neighborhood for approximately 35 minutes. Fire-Rescue Units and Sheriff's Deputies responded and blocked off the roads leading into the area. Dominion Energy also responded with a crew and quickly secured the leak and then made a repair to the line. This is the third broken gas line in the last two months due to the installation of fiber optic lines into the residential areas.
