Around 09:30 multiple callers reported a gas line rupture along C-470 between Santa Fe Drive & Platte Canyon Road. First arriving Engine 15 observed a large gas cloud and rocks being thrown over 100 feet from the hole. Construction crews on site advised the Engine Captain that they'd hit a 20 inch and a 4 inch gas line. Several more companies were requested including hazmat and a 1 square mile area was evacuated with a reverse 911.
