A section of gas pumps were closed and a hazmat team dispatched following a gas leak at the Sheetz on State Route 224 in Canfield on Wednesday.
Matt Rarick, deputy chief of the Canfield Fire Department, tells 21 News, the incident began when a vehicle slid into a section of gas pumps at around 4 am because of the icy conditions.
The leak itself didn't start until around 9 am when a valve failed while crews were repairing the pump.
Rarick said the gas flowed to a nearby creek, but crews assisted by a hazmat team were able to stop the flow of the gas approximately 100 yards into the creek.
A cleanup crew has been dispatched to the area.
