Workers at two downtown office buildings were evacuated Friday morning after a report of a possible gas leak.
The Buffalo Fire Department was called to Cathedral Place on Main St. near Swan St. shortly before 11 a.m. A neighboring building at 290 Main was also evacuated, according to Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz.
WGRZ-TV reports a spokesperson for National Fuel says a private contractor was doing work in the building when a natural gas service line was hit around 10:30.
