Landscaping workers nicked a natural gas line in Oceanside, California, prompting authorities to evacuate a home until utility crews were able to stop the leak.
A worker accidentally struck the gas line while digging, causing gas to spew into the air for about 45 minutes, said Jess Specht of the Oceanside Fire Department.
A home directly in front of the leak was evacuated, Specht said.
Firefighters also intended to evacuate another nearby home, but found it was already empty.
