I'm having difficulty in finding the article as it was just an RSS feed from Grist.org at the time, but I do remember that the article was not clear on exactly where the fighting was.

There are other examples of fuel shortages in the U.S., though. Here's one from September 2008 due to hurricanes Ike and Gustav that reached as far as Atlanta and Nashville, and which lasted for up to 8 days:
