TAMPA, Fla. — A gas line rupture shut down a road in South Tampa on Thursday afternoon.
Around 1 p.m., crews from Tampa Fire Rescue, including a HazMat team, said they are currently on the scene to assess the situation.
South Himes Avenue is closed from West Tyson Avenue to West Ballast Point Boulevard.
There is no information yet on what caused the rupture.
A Hardee County grandmother is on trial this week for leaving her 7-month-old granddaughter in a hot car where the baby died —the second grandchild to die under Tracey Nix's care. ABC Action News I-Team Reporter Kylie McGivern sat down with Kaila Nix just days ahead of her mother's trial for aggravated manslaughter.
Trial begins Monday for woman who left 7-month-old granddaughter in hot car
