Some homes temporarily evacuated in early-morning Winnipeg gas leak

No one was injured in what Winnipeg firefighters are calling a “significant” gas leak at a Bellavista Crescent bungalow early Wednesday.

Fire crews were called to the scene just after 5:30 a.m., and established a perimeter around the home, while a number of neighbouring homes were temporarily evacuated as a precaution.

Once the gas line was crimped by Manitoba Hydro workers, residents were able to safely return home.
