One injured, evacuation lifted following ‘high-pressure gas’ line rupture in Silverthorne (Summit Daily News)

The Silverthorne Police Department has issued an evacuation order for a 500-foot area around North Golden Eagle Road and North Chipmunk Lane due to a gas main break, according to a Summit County alert. Residents and visitors to the area are asked to leave the area immediately. The area near those roads is known as the Eagles Nest Neighborhood. The gas never ignited, according to Summit Fire & EMS, but the pressure from the gas line sent debris flying several hundred feet. One construction worker was taken to the hospital, according to the post.
