FREDERICK, Md. (AP) — Fuel shortages caused by Hurricane Ike are hitting Sheetz gas stations in Frederick County, Md., and parts of Virginia and North Carolina.
The Altoona, Pa.-based company says some of its convenience stores began running out of gas over the weekend due to the shutdown Thursday of a major southeastern distribution artery run by the Georgia-based Colonial Pipeline Company.
Several Lynchburg-area Sheetz stations ran out of gas over the weekend.
Sheetz spokeswoman Monica Jones says she doesn’t know how many of the company’s stores are affected or when they will be resupplied.
The Colonial Pipeline moves petroleum products northward from the Gulf of Mexico.
