Broken Water Main Causes Flooding In Toluca Lake Neighborhood

TOLUCA LAKE (CBS) — A broken 6-inch water main caused minor flooding and prompted closure of a street in Toluca Lake Wednesday.

The problem was reported about 11:40 a.m. in the 4400 block of Forman Avenue, according to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.

The water main was installed around 1970. About two dozen customers were affected.

Crews were sent to repair the main, the LADWP reported.
