48 HOMES WITHOUT WATER; SEVERAL ROADS CLOSED
August 31, 2009 (La Mesa) –Three water line breaks have caused flooding in La Mesa, resulting in traffic congestion and leaving 48 homes without water.
“There are several areas cordoned off,” said Helix Water District spokesperson Kate Breece at 4 p.m. this afternoon. “We would expect this hopefully to be all back online with water by sometime in the middle of the night, if all goes well.”
The breaks occurred near the intersections of University Ave. and Yale St., Oxford and Purdue, and 73rd and Amherst.
