Evacuated: Two office buildings cleared out Monday morning due to a gas leak

MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- Two office buildings had to be evacuated for a short time on Monday morning, July 14th due to a gas leak.

The gas leak was reported around 9:00 a.m. Monday -- and occurred near 13th and Canal.

A short time later, We Energies officials were able to cut off the gas -- and begin repairs.

All of those evacuated were able to return to the buildings.

We Energies officials say the gas leak was the result of a construction crew severing a gas line.

No one was injured.
