“At like 1:30 in the morning, Housing knocked on our door really loud, and when I opened the door, they gave us a hot plate and said, ‘Your gas is off’.”-woman interviewed by CBS 2 New York
“We didn’t know anything. They shut the gas off. They came after one o’clock in the morning and gave us little counter stoves to use, and that was it.”-‘Kim’, interviewed by CBS 2 New York
Starting at about 01:00 hours, 14 March 2014, as 250 families were sleeping, New York City government Housing Authority officials banged on the doors and told the families ‘no more gas’!
NYC Housing Authority says there is a major gas leak in the apartments, but residents interviewed by local news media said they never smelled any gas. Natural gas does not stink, so gas companies are supposed to add an odor to the gas so people can tell if there is a leak.
Is this just paranoia after the massive explosion in Harlem? “I guess because of the sensitivity of what happened in Harlem they wanted to be on the ball and not have the same outcome of what happened in uptown New York.”-Monica Corbett, Pomonok Houses Association
Corbett also said the gas was actually turned off at 22:00 hours on 13 March 2014, so why did NYC Housing Authority decide to wake people up at 01:00 the next morning to tell them they turned off the gas? Sounds like BS to me.
Apartment tenants were told they will be without gas for heat and cooking for at least two months! And this as the Obama regime wants to ban wood burning stoves!
