Busted Gas Line Forces Frankfort Square Residents Out of Homes

Several Frankfort Square residents were forced from their homes Thursday night after a gas line severed. 

Workers hit the gas line on Wintergreen Drive, while planting parkway trees, Frankfort Fire Protection District Battalion Chief Tim Campbell told Sun-Times Media.

The trees were replacements for uprooted ash trees, lost to the Emerald Ash Borer last year.

The residents were evacuated as a precautionary measure, Campbell told Sun-Times Media. They were back in their homes just over an hour later.
