Gas leak in Upland

| |
A gas leak caused the temporary evacuation of several stores in Upland Wednesday afternoon.

The leak occurred in the area of Foothill Boulevard and Mulberry Avenue at 3:36 p.m. after a woman ran into gas pipe while waiting in the Starbucks drive-through, Upland police said.

Upland police and fire responded to the area and evacuated the Starbucks along with three other area stores as a precaution.

There was also a child in the car that crashed into the pipe, police said.  The driver may have passed out because of a medical problem, police said. No one was injured.

The Gas Company arrived and is working to fix the pipe.
