San Francisco firefighters said some Bret Harte neighborhood residents may have to evacuate or shelter in place due to a reported gas leak.
The fire department said crews and police were knocking on doors south of Paul Avenue, between Crane and Carr streets, to inform residents if they should temporarily relocate.
According to the fire department, a construction crew in the area ruptured a natural gas line.
The fire department said the evacuations were a precaution, and SF Muni buses were sent to the area to act as cooling centers for displaced residents.
