A couple of neighbors temporarily had to hunker down inside as firefighters and utility crews responded to a gas leak in Salmon Creek on Wednesday afternoon.
Clark County Fire District 6 spokesman David Schmitke said firefighters were called to a new home development at 14003 N.E. Seventh Court around 2:15 p.m. for a reported gas leak.
Responding firefighters learned a subcontractor at the construction site struck a 2- to 3-inch natural gas line.
One resident evacuated, and two others were asked to stay inside and close their windows, Schmitke said.
