There are evacuations in progress after what is reported as a "large" gas main leak in the 2500 block of West 47th Street on the Wyandotte-Johnson Counties KS line..
So far there hasn;'t been an explosion or fire- and one person has been reported to have some medical problems as a result of the gas leak.
Police and fire units from Johnson County Fire District 2 and KC-KS have evacuated at least 2 dozen residents and businesses in the area as a precaution and evening drive-time on Rainbow Boulevard may be affected as Rainbow is close to the danger area..
Shortly after 6 pm- the Gas Service Company shut down the leaking line and shortly residents were allowed to return.
