Gas leak prompts shelter in place at Barbers Hill ISD
A gas line break on Eagle Drive forced Barbers Hill ISD students and staff, plus a nearby daycare, to shelter in place while district officials shut down all air conditioning to prevent fumes. A City of Mont Belvieu water crew nicked the line during hydro excavating, causing traffic to halt and detours to form as emergency crews responded.
