Regina fire called to high-risk hazmat leak at Armour Road

The all clear has been given after a propane leak in Regina’s north end.

Armour Road was blocked off Thursday as Regina Fire & Protective Services dealt with the leaking propane tank.

Crews were called to a construction area of the Evraz steel plant late Thursday morning. It appears a valve on a large propane tank was broken as the tank was being moved, and the tank began venting gas.

Firefighters established a safe perimeter and evacuated people from nearby buildings as a precaution.
