Firefighters in Phoenix worked to contain a fuel leak early Sunday after a tanker carrying 8,000 gallons of gas was punctured, officials said.

Hundreds of gallons of unleaded gasoline leaked near 35th Avenue and Bethany Home Road after the tanker appeared "to have taken the turn a little too short," Phoenix Fire Capt. Scott Douglass told FOX10 Phoenix.

Hazmat crews built berms to contain and divert the leaking fuel so that it did not go into any storm drains.

Two nearby businesses were temporarily evacuated and drivers were asked to avoid the area as teams cleaned up the leak.
