BEND, OR -- Bend Fire says a city paving crew is responsible for a downtown gas leak, Friday night. The contractor hit the line with a concrete saw blade, near NW Harriman and NW Oregon. Crews were able to place a temporary patch until Cascade Natural Gas can complete repairs Monday.

Investigators say the contractor properly called before digging, the line was shallower than expected and locating paint was difficult to see due to dust and low light.
