BGE Working on Delmar Avenue Gas Leak

A gas leak in Glen Burnie has led fire and police officials to set up a one-block "safety zone."

Crews for Baltimore Gas and Electric are actively working to fix a gas leak on Delmar Avenue in Glen Burnie, according to the company. At approximately 4:16 p.m. Wednesday, a crew—not with BGE—accidentally struck the gas line on the 500 block of Delmar Avenue, according to BGE spokesperson Rachael Lighty. A BGE crew arrived at 4:44 p.m. and are still in the process of isolating the gas leak, Lighty said. The crew does not yet have an estimated time of restoration. According to WBAL, fire officials have made a "safety zone" around the block of the leak. Police are redirecting traffic around the area.

ha, would have been nice if they notified people within the "block" of radius. I live on that street and didn't get a knock, phone call or anything.   more ›

It's the B&A Trail bridge over the creek that runs behind Marley Station heading towards northern Glen Burnie. A fun place to be on rollerblades as there's a curve at the top of the path and it heads more sharply downhill so you can gain momentum and jump the lip of the bridge where it meets the trail! :)   more ›

Pizza Hut Driver Returns to Work After Defending Against Robbery

A delivery driver for Pizza Hut reported being demoted after defending himself during an apparent robbery attempt in December.

A Pizza Hut delivery driver in Glen Burnie, demoted for defending himself during a robbery attempt, has been reinstated to his former status. Sam Swicegood, a franchise employee and college student in Anne Arundel County, told Fox News Insider that he was demoted in December to in-house duties after using a small rod to defend himself from several would-be robbers. As a result of his demotion, he was being paid less. But Pizza Hut has since reinstated Swicegood as a delivery driver in another part of the county, reports WBAL. After initial reports of his apparent demotion, a Facebook page was created in support of Swicegood, and hundreds of people voiced support for him to return to his job. Do you think Swicegood deserved to be demoted? …
