ALBANY — Officials responded to a reported gas leak in Albany along La. 43 on Wednesday and briefly closed the roadway.

Albany Police and Albany Fire both responded to the scene of the reported leak from Cain's to Albany Storage. Atmos Energy crews also responded. 

The road has since re-opened and people who were evacuated from the area have also been allowed to return to the area.

"In the event you detect a gas odor in or around your home or business, please take necessary precautions by shutting off air intake systems, including air conditioning and window units, and take shelter in place," police said.

WBRZ will update this story as we learn more about the leak.
