Columbus Fire, Engine Ladder 8 are on scene. We went ahead and closed it down at Long and at Broad. There's a construction crew flagging us down. We'll be out investigating. Captain, I'll go up to command. Engine 8 will have accountability. Message received, Ladder 8. We're already on the phone with Columbia Gas, getting them out to you guys. Fantastic, thanks.
