    Thunder Bay Fire Rescue responded to a report of a broken gas meter at the corner of Cumberland and Lorne streets. Upon arrival, they found a broken gas meter emitting gas from an open line. As a precaution, they blocked off Cumberland Street to prevent any possible ignition. Crews were able to quickly shut off the gas flow as the break was above the valve. Union Gas attended to make repairs and the street has since reopened. The initial report was that construction equipment on Lorne Street had struck and broken the gas meter.
