Sprinkler activation causes flooding in apartment and seafood shop, San Jose CA
Fire & ArsonFire crews responded to an apartment near South 1st Street for an activated sprinkler. The sprinkler head in apartment 207 was triggered, causing about two inches of water flooding. The water extended down to the first-floor seafood business, Scott's Seafood, causing flooding there. Firefighters shut off the water supply and began efforts to control and remove water to prevent further damage. No fire was reported, only water damage from the sprinkler activation.
