Lawsuit filed over natural gas explosions
A class action lawsuit has been filed against Columbia Gas and its parent company on behalf of residents impacted by natural gas explosions and fires in Massachusetts.
The lawsuit was filed Tuesday by the law firm Morgan & Morgan.
It seeks compensation for residents of Lawrence, Andover and North Andover who were forced to evacuate after the explosions Thursday but didn’t suffer injuries or damage to their homes.
Frank Petosa, one of the attorneys who filed the lawsuit, said they are seeking to provide the families justice and hold Columbia Gas accountable.
Columbia Gas didn’t immediately respond to an email Tuesday.
