A major water main ruptured in Los Angeles, causing significant flooding in West Hollywood. The broken pipe, part of the Sunset Boulevard line, dates back to 1916. Authorities report the infrastructure was already scheduled for replacement, but not until 2031. The break has disrupted water service and caused road closures in the affected area. Video footage circulating online shows widespread inundation as a result of the burst pipe. The utility company acknowledges the pipe's age and the planned, but distant, replacement timeline. Repairs are underway to restore service and mitigate further damage.
