Water Main Break in Boston Leaves at Two Dead

A water main break in Boston on Friday, October 21 has left two workers dead. The main broke shortly after 1 pm and quickly filled a trench with water.

In this video, a man is seen climbing out of a hole from which water is also pouring.

The city of Boston has said the workers were private contractors, not city workers, and that they don’t yet know how many people were initially trapped. A large, coordinated rescue operation is underway. Credit: Twitter/BellinoJulie
