LEAMINGTON, Ont. -- Police in Leamington, Ont., say a major underground natural gas leak that forced an evacuation has been repaired.
Ontario Provincial Police say the leak spurred an evacuation of the southwestern Ontario community's downtown core early Saturday afternoon.
But they say the rupture was found and repaired within a few hours.
They say the downtown is now safe, but a portion of the area must be closed for several more hours to fill a hole where the repair was made.
Police say nobody was injured and no property was damaged as a result of the incident.
