Gas leak in downtown Bluffton

Wells County Courthouse and every building between Market and Washington from Marion to Main street were evacuated Tuesday afternoon after city workers struck a high-pressure gas line in downtown Bluffton.

Jerry Battiste shot video and posted information on Twitter. Frank Shanly shot pictures. Dave Schultz provided video. Glen Werling was first on the scene. His photos are posted at the web site.



NIPSCO crews worked furiously to tap the broken line east of Johnson Street to set-up a by pass line so crews could exact repairs.
