CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A Hazmat incident involving propane shut down Hwy. 77 near FM 892 Friday night. It reopened early Saturday morning.
"Hazmat incidents are very technical so these calls take quite a while to situate," a Facebook post by the Annaville Fire Department said.
Traffic in the area was diverted and officials asked the public to avoid the area for several hours.
Corpus Christi Fire Department's Hazmat team and Nueces County ESD3 helped clear up the situation.
