The power substation near Avenue U had to be shut off for the gas line repair, and homes nearby were forced to evacuate due to their proximity to the substation.

The power will not be turned on until after the line is repaired and no gas is detected in the air.

Additional officers have been assigned to the Hondo ISD campus as a precaution while crews make repairs.
