DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — A DeKalb County middle school was evacuated Tuesday morning after a gas leak.
According to school officials, a construction crew hit a gas line in the neighborhood near Ronald McNair Middle School.
Students and staff at the school were relocated to McNair High School. Officials said that everyone is safe.
The gas line has been repaired for students to return to the middle school Wednesday for their classes, but the company is still checking the gass pressure.
"The gas company is determining the gas pressure that will determine if the building can be heated properly to receive students tomorrow," a school spokesperson said.
