A gas leak near the Ocean County Administration Building forced an evacuation of the structure Tuesday afternoon.

Gas could be smelled in the lobby area, just outside the meeting room, as more than 30 people were evacuated.

Emergency personnel appeared on the premises, and said they don't know the location of the leak.
