A major gas leak at the intersection of FM 493 and Roosevelt caused road closures on Tuesday. It has since been repaired and all roads have been reopened.
Traffic within a four-mile radius was being re-routed.
Multiple agencies were on the scene, including the Donna Fire Department, Texas Department of Public Safety and Hidalgo County Sheriff's Office.
DPS has confirmed a Ford truck struck a gas line, causing a major leak.
There isn't a fire or any danger, but until officials can stop the leak, traffic will be rerouted.
DPS says the driver of the Ford ran from the scene, and the Hidalgo County Sheriff's Office has officially taken over the investigation.
