Gas Leak Forces Students To Shelter In Place As Residents Evacuate

CALISTOGA, CA — Students and faculty at Calistoga High School were returning to their normal schedule Tuesday morning after a gas leak prompted a shelter-in-place order for the campus on Lake Street.

PG&E responded to the campus on Lake Street and located and terminated the leak, city officials said shortly before 10:15 a.m. Tuesday.

Personnel with the Calistoga police and fire departments responded to the incident and helped evacuate Grant Street residents to the community center.

The city asked the public to avoid Grant Street from Lake Street to Arch Way.

Students sheltered in place in the gymnasium until the campus received the "all-clear."
