June 27, 2009- Just around 00:00 Chief 723 was sent to the area of the parking lot in the Cressona Mall for an investigation. As Chief 723 (Donatti) arrived on scene he was met with a natural gas leak coming the parking lot area right across from Blockbuster video. Chief Donatti immediately asked to have a full assingnment dispatched from Schuylkill Haven as well as Cressona Fire Department. Engine 737 and Rescue 727 were first to arrive and went to the parking lot to stand bye with Chief 723. Engine 733 came in and was asked to stand bye at a hydrant in the event that we needed to flow water. The remaining units coming in, were asked to divert or stop traffic on Route 61 as well as the Cressona Mall. District 41 and Schuylkill Haven Fire Department were on scene for just over an hour until the leak was capped off by the gas company. **Station 4 Pics**
