(District Fire Chief Lew MacDonald)
Enbridge Gas crews are repairing a leak which caused some anxious moments in the uptown early this afternoon.
District Fire Chief Lew MacDonald says passerbys noticed a strong odour of gas in the area of the Imperial Theater.
MacDonald says fire crews took readings in both the Imperial and the nearby Admiral Beatty Seniors Complex — and — didn’t find any gas in the buildings.
The leak is outside the Imperial — that building was evacuated but MacDonald says there was no need to evacuate the Beatty complex.
