The Madison Fire Department is currently investigating a gas leak Saturday afternoon in the 100 block of State Street. According to MFD, at around 1:13 p.m. officers were dispatched to a ‘significant’ gas leak located in Ian’s Pizza. Around 1 p.m. employees of Ian’s Pizza called 911 to report a natural gas leak, and were in need of assistance from the fire department after being unsuccessful in turning it off themselves. The building was evacuated prior to MFD units arriving to scene at 1:17 p.m. Authorities say that a fallen appliance in the restaurant pulled the gas line out of the wall. The building was ventilated and gas was checked for in the buildings adjacent to Ian’s Pizza. Madison Police assisted in clearing the area of the significant traffic caused by the Farmer’s market. Firefighters cleared from the scene at 2:47 p.m. MG&E is still present at the scene.
