ROY, Utah — A gas leak forced residents of a Roy neighborhood to evacuate their homes for a shot time Thursday following a gas leak.
The Roy Police Department said a 6-inch gas line near 5600 South and 2700 West was struck by utility workers in the area, causing the leak.
Residents within three blocks of either side of the leak were evacuated by police, with everyone else being told to avoid the area, as well as the D&RG Trail.
While original estimates showed repairs would take up to four hours, police were able to lift the evacuation order at 11 a.m., allowing everyone to return to their homes.
There were no reports of anyone feeling sick from gas fumes.
