A private contractor caused a major gas line rupture in San Francisco, leading to the evacuation of four buildings and significant disruptions to Muni services around Potrero Avenue.
The San Francisco Fire Department alerted residents to avoid the area near Potrero Avenue, announcing road closures on Hampshire Street between 23rd and 25th, emphasizing the urgency of the situation.
A video showed a backhoe on 24th Street possibly responsible for the gas line severing, prompting PG&E to arrive for gas shut-off and repairs.
Emergency services confirmed the impact on local infrastructure, with Muni bus routes 33 and 48 being redirected due to street closures caused by the gas leak.
