If you were traveling East Lake Drive around lunch time yesterday, you may have found the road closed around the East Lake MARTA Station.  David sent in this photo of Decatur Fire along the closed strip.  Decatur Fire’s Stephanie Burton provided us with the details of the incident…

On Monday, April 21, 2014 at 11:51am Decatur Fire Department responded to 222 E. Lake Dr. in reference to a gas leak.  Upon arrival, Decatur Fire found DeKalb County Water Shed working in the area.  A crew struck a residential service line.  The area was closed for approximately 2hrs to allow Georgia Natural Gas to shut down and repair the leak.  No one was evacuated.  The only location affected by the leak was 222 E. Lake Dr.

[My house] It was broken into today – sometime before lunch time. Thankfully all the person got was our TV – we don’t have much else. We recently moved from East Point because our house there was broken into four times.

We know that Oakhurst is a great place and we chose to move here because of the low crime rate and family friendly enviroment – and we suspect that this may be isolated to just us. Especially since the Decatur Police said that no one else was broken into today. We live on East Lake Drive at the corner of East Lake and Spring.

The Decatur Police were wonderful and took several fingerprint samples. The person also went thorough my son’s room (he’s 4 – not much he can find in there) and our liquor cabinet – too bad all they found was 7 year old wine from World Market. We are hoping the finger prints will lead to something. But, if you could, please let your readers to be aware of this so that they can be on the look out for anything suspicious or out of the ordinary around them.
