JFD called to location behind IDK, Mon morning

Jamestown (CSi) The Jamestown City Fire Department was called out at 11:18 a.m., on Monday, to behind the IDK establishment, and  Casey’s General Store in Northeast Jamestown.

An incident with a trencher caused a natural gas leak, with crews from MDU also on the scene to stop the leak, as the exposed gas line was being pinched off. There was no fire.

Lt. Sheldon Mohr says the fire department remained on scene until 11:57 a.m., when  MDU had the leak shut off, in case of fire.

He says there were three City Fire Department Units on the scene, and 10 fire fighters on the scene, with the remainder on stand-by at the North Fire Hall.
