Westway Centre mall evacuated after gas leak

Customers and staff at the Westway Centre mall in Etobicoke were forced to evacuate on Saturday morning due to a gas leak.

The evacuation took place just after 10 a.m.

Toronto Fire Services said a maintenance crew was working on a gas meter that was malfunctioning and caused the gas to leak.

Officials say all stores were evacuated and no injuries were reported.

Enbridge Gas successfully capped the leak and the mall, located in Etobicoke near Kipling Avenue and Dixon Road, will remain closed for the rest of the day as the new meter is installed.
