LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A company installing fiber optic cable across the Kentuckiana region is back in hot water after cutting yet another utility line in Floyd County.

This time, they hit a four-inch gas line.

Just after 4 p.m. Thursday, a company working for Lumos struck the gas line in the 9400 block of County Line Road in New Albany. 

Lumos has had their permit suspended twice this summer by the Floyd County Commissioners for cutting utility lines. 

Officials said the gas line was repaired late Thursday night.
