CHAMPAIGN — Several Campustown streets were closed for a few hours near midday Monday as crews worked to contain a gas leak. Champaign Deputy Fire Marshal Randy Smith said the leak happened around 10:50 a.m. at the intersection of John and Locust streets when a construction crew apparently hit a 4-inch gas line. He said one apartment was evacuated as a precaution. John was shut down between Oak and First streets, while Locust was closed between Green and Daniel streets. By 1:15 p.m., the fire department said the leak had been contained and the streets were re-opened.
The fire department always contains leaks on Mondays.
