The 3rd Avenue building with the Health Food Store, Valley Doll Museum and Jerry's Lock and Key was evacuated Monday afternoon, January 5 2015, due to high carbon monoxide levels.

 

People have been allowed to return to their downtown businesses after a gas scare Monday afternoon. Extremely high levels of carbon monoxide led to the evacuation of the building on Third Avenue in downtown Drumheller this afternoon at about 12:30 p.m.
    AltaGas Utilities cleared the building on Third Avenue that houses the Health Food Store, Jerry’s Lock and Key, and The Valley Doll Museum.
    The utility company has turned off the gas, and is on-site working with the building's owner on examining the heating system, and monitoring the situation.
