A 911 call of a possible gas leak prompted Clark Public Utilites to cut power to 1,435 people in the La Center and Ridgefield area this morning.

The outage began after the 911 call, made minutes after 11 a.m., but the issue was resolved and power restored to a majority of the customers within 20 minutes, the agency’s spokeswoman Erica Erland said.

Thirty three residences remain without power, but Erland estimated that power would be restored shortly.
