YORK, Neb. -- Dozens of residents were evacuated after a vehicle crashed into the US Cellular store in York on Saturday.

A post on the store's Facebook page says everyone involved in the crash is safe, but authorities with the York County Sheriff's Office say they had to evacuate residents within a 300-foot radius of the accident scene at Fifth Street and Lincoln Avenue.

Authorities said the evacuation was due to the vehicle hitting a natural gas line.

There were no injuries reported.
