Gas leak causes business to close

A gas line leak Wednesday morning at the former Dairy Queen lot on Splitrock Blvd. caused Family, Floors & Furniture and the Brandon Valley School District administration building to close. The leak happened when workers hit a gas line in search of a sewer line, said Brandon firefighter Mike Nelson. The fire department monitored the site while Mid-American Energy worked to turn off the leak. Jamie Hult/BV Journal
