State police say all roads going into Intercoastal City are now open following an early morning explosion caused by a rupture in a natural gas pipeline.

It happened just North of Intercoastal City prompting authorities to close Highway 82 at LA 333 and evacuate a half mile radius around the area.

Police tell us the area is sparsely populated and there are no injuries.
