SAN ANTONIO – Three homes were evacuated out of an abundance of caution after a gas line was hit in a south Bexar County neighborhood, according to CPS Energy.
The utility said a non-CPS Energy third party contractor working on behalf of a resident hit a gas line Monday night near Big Oak Run and Calaveras Cove.
CPS Energy said that any customer who ever thinks they smell gas should leave the house immediately and call CPS Energy at 210-353-HELP (4357) or 911.
A CPS Energy gas crew is en route to the scene. Additional information was not immediately available.
