Emergency Response in Monsey: Vehicle Crashes Into Gas Meter Causing Major Leak on West Maple Avenue
A serious accident occurred in Monsey when a vehicle lost control and crashed into a gas meter at a home on West Maple Avenue near Saddle River Road and Hershel Terrace. The impact caused an active gas leak, forcing authorities to immediately shut down the roadway for public safety. Emergency crews including the Monsey Fire Department, Ramapo Police, and Orange & Rockland Utilities responded quickly to the scene to contain the situation.
The incident involved a gray SUV that ended up against a residential building. Thankfully, there have been no immediate reports of injuries, but officials are urging all motorists to avoid the area while crews work to secure the leak and repair the damage. Photos and video from the scene show multiple emergency vehicles and personnel managing the hazardous situation on this normally quiet suburban street.

Local authorities are expected to investigate the cause of the crash as they work to restore normal conditions in the area as soon as possible.
