A dangerous propane tanker crash forced residents to evacuate their homes overnight‼️😳⛽️

The tanker, carrying roughly 7,000 litres of liquefied propane, rolled onto its side near Parkway Road and Cedar Lane Tuesday evening. 

A damaged hose caused propane to leak, prompting officials to evacuate homes within an 800-metre radius as HazMat crews responded.

Officials said propane levels in the area had reached a point where the gas could have been flammable, while crews worked to secure and upright the tanker.

The situation was resolved overnight, with all evacuation orders lifted by 3:30 a.m. Wednesday and Parkway Road reopening at 4:15 a.m.

Thankfully, the driver was not injured. Ottawa police say the driver has been charged with careless driving, and the investigation remains ongoing.

Glad everyone was able to make it home safely 🙏❤️
