Officer Kane
Work begins after the water was shut off.
Route 9 east quickly backed up with the
lane restriction.
The break is on the left on the sidewalk.
Officers arrived to find heavy flooding on
Route 9 eastbound.
The water caused the road to buckle, and
also took out this large hole with the
pressure from the break.
