Water leak in building due to broken sprinkler pipe, Andale KS


A building near North 247 and south of 53rd had a water leak caused by a broken main riser pipe in the sprinkler room. On-scene crews did not have the correct tool to shut off the water valve and requested assistance. Fire protection services arrived with the proper shutoff tool and turned off the water, making further help from the water department unnecessary.
