Gas Main Break Causes Business Evacuations in South Jersey

Construction workers struck a gas main in South Jersey Tuesday morning causing the evacuation of some nearby businesses.

The line was struck in the area of Stokes and Dixontown roads in Medford around 9 a.m.

Some nearby businesses were evacuated as a caution but the Starbucks in nearby Ironstone Village Center remained opened despite one of its entrances being blocked off.

No injuries were reported.

It took crews around two hours to fix the leak.
