Gas leak reported in San Francisco
A gas leak reported Tuesday morning near Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital was caused by a crew that struck a 2-inch line, according to PG&E.
The San Francisco Fire Department initially issued an alert shortly before 10 a.m. about the gas leak in the area of 25th and Hampshire streets.
The third-party crew not employed or contracted with PG&E hit the line, and PG&E crews responded to stop the leak before making repairs, said Tamar Sarkissian, a spokesperson for the utility.
Members of the public are advised to avoid the area while the emergency response is ongoing.
