Firefighters in Maynard responded to two simultaneous gas leaks Saturday morning, less than 48 hours after a deadly house fire that reportedly had a gas-like smell. Maynard Fire Chief Anthony Stowers says the department was notified at 9 a.m. Saturday of a gas-like smell in the area of Thompson Street behind Building 5 of the Mill & Main Place development. Responding firefighters notified Eversource crews about the present odor, and the Eversource crews determined there was gas leaking from a regulator.
