Officials say the leak is not hazardous, but the odor will linger until the leak is fixed. Public Safety says crews responded after a report of a strong gas odor outside Consumer Fresh Produce Inc.

Crews inspected the building, which is a large cold storage facility, and found the leak on the roof. Building management arranged for a contractor to fix the leak.
