EXETER, Pa. — Exeter Fire Chief Doug Roberts said that a gas line was ruptured around 6 p.m. on Tuesday along Schooley Avenue.
All of the people who live along that gas line were told to leave.
That includes one home and that senior living center, which is home to 26 people.
Chief Roberts said those people were told to either stay with family or go to Wyoming Area High School. The Red Cross was helping folks there.
"On a cold night like this and everything all the volunteers that came out and helped us out, we're very grateful. A quick response from UGI also to get here and assess the situation," Chief Roberts said.
After five hours, UGI determined it was safe and residents were allowed to return.
