A natural gas leak evacuated a downtown business Sunday afternoon.
Lincoln Fire and Rescue were called to Misty's Steakhouse and Brewery at about 3:00 p.m.
Firefighters evacuated the building and a nearby business. They also blocked off 11th street between P and Q streets.
Firefighters were able to shut off the gas at an inside meter. The fire department says a gas line leading to a cooking appliance was ruptured during cleaning.
After the building was ventilated for about an hour, firefighters allowed employees back in the building.
Nobody was injured, and Misty's was open for business as usual Sunday night.
