Gas Leak Evacuates Homes
Some Roulette homes were evacuated Wednesday night when natural gas from a new Marcellus Shale well started leaking in heavy concentrations.
At just after 6 p.m., Route 6 was closed from the eastbound Roulette Main Street exit to the Fishing Creek exit.
Roulette firefighters had to access the wells with four-wheel-drive vehicles to turn off the valves. The leak was eventually stopped.
Guardian Exploration of Texas owns the wells, but they have an office in Shinglehouse and are investigating.
