Vandalism string leaves thousands in Colorado without heat, hot water

© Getty Images A natural gas company is working to restore service to thousands of customers in Colorado following vandalism that damaged lines and forced gas to be shut off, leaving residents without heat and hot water.  According to a statement Monday from Black Hills Energy s vice president of operations, Vance Crocker, crews were working to bring more than 3,500 gas meters in Aspen back online, a process that “requires several steps. “We must first make sure all gas meters are off, then purge the system so it’s ready for the reintroduction of the natural gas supply,” Crocker added. “Finally, our technicians will go door-to-door and relight each customer’s gas appliances.”
