“All Clear” Given for JBSA-Randolph Gas Leak

JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-RANDOLPH, Texas – The Randolph Fire Department issued an “all clear” for a gas leak reported near building 492, part of the Air Force Personnel Center, this morning.

At approximately 11:30 a.m., JBSA officials working with representatives from CPS Energy secured the gas line and declared the area safe.

The incident occurred around 7:15 a.m., when a front-end loader working on new building construction breached a gas pipe, causing a leak. Officials initially evacuated personnel from the construction site and building 492 as a precautionary measure. The cordon is now lifted, and members may safely return to the area. No injuries were reported.

Please direct queries to the JBSA-Randolph PA location at 210-652-4410 or 502abw.pa.official@us.af.mil.
