ahead bad best came chris close company conclusion decided feet gas interest leaking pipe pulled safe school talked three together until water work
A construction company was doing some work at the school and they pulled up a big, two-inch gas pipe that was leaking real bad and was real close to the school. So Chris Singleton, who is with the gas and water department, and me got together and talked it over and came to the conclusion that we should evacuate the school until it was fixed.

We just wanted to be on the safe side.
