This from John Tulipano:
West Chicago responded to a car into a commercial building at 1525 Kautz on the west edge of the DuPage Airport. The driver was found walking down Kautz Road. When companies arrived they found a car 20 feet into the building, with all gas meters sheared off and the attic of building filled with gas. Exterior operations were set up while companies waited several hours for Nicor to find the main and shut it down. There was s special call for the MABAS Division 10 MVU from Lyons.
