The police reported that a 59-year-old man was charged with drink driving after a crash on Mitcham Road led to a gas leak and 300 evacuations.
Local resident Carolyn Lipczynski expressed anger about being directed to a cemetery for shelter during the evacuation, where she and her six-year-old child waited for six hours.
Despite police mentioning that Croydon Council would provide buses or a community center for warmth, Carolyn Lipczynski and others said they received no support.
Emergency teams responded quickly to a crash that ruptured a gas main, leading to extensive road closures and the evacuation of hundreds from their homes.
