Cornerstone Shopping Center Remains Closed as Investigation Continues
An update from Oklahoma Natural Gas indicates that the source of the issue at Cornerstone Shopping Center is not currently believed to be a natural gas leak.
Investigators are now evaluating whether the presence of gas could be connected to an abandoned well or a naturally occurring pocket of methane. The Oklahoma Corporation Commission has been notified and is actively involved in the investigation.
Samples have been collected and sent to a laboratory for testing. The shopping center, including all businesses and the parking lot, will remain closed until test results are received and officials can determine the safest course of action.
Residents are asked to stay clear of the barricaded area, as ONG officials have deemed the building unsafe at this time. Surrounding roadways and nearby structures remain open and accessible.
Owassoisms will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.
