MCKINNEY (1080 KRLD) - A natural gas leak forced the evacuation of several businesses in a McKinney shopping center.
Several businesses were evacuated Tuesday in the area around the Home Depot store off of 75/Central and Hwy 380 after work crews accidentally cut a 6-inch gas line.
Crews from the McKinney Fire Department were called to the scene as a precaution and ended up helping to remove several animals from a Pet Smart store.
