Huntingdon Valley Fire Company Responds to Gas Leak

Station 8 was dispatched to a residential gas leak at the corner of Kent and Welsh Roads early this morning at 3:03 am. 

A caller informed Philadelphia 911 of a strong odor of gas and the sound of hissing coming from outside the residence. PFD dispatched an engine and a ladder and upon arrival confirmed a serious gas leak from the A/B corner of the house at the gas meter, and also asked for Montco to dispatch  as the residence was in Lower Moreland. 

PFD remained on scene to cover side A. Engine 8-1 and Engine 11 responded to the scene, Engine 95 responded to station 8 for cover. PECO arrived on scene to shut off the gas and companies were released when gas levels subsided.
