Investigators may have found a potential cause of the mysterious gas odor that's been plaguing South Brooklyn for weeks.

The state DEC says investigators found a leak in the tank system of a Mobil Gas Station at Coney Island and Guider Avenues.

Officials say the leak was stopped, and the station's owner was given multiple alleged violations, including failing to report a suspected leak and spill.

The DEC says it still cannot confirm whether the leak was the main source of the odors and the investigation continues.
