Water main break turns streets into rapids, requires rescues

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh is cleaning up after a massive water main break turned streets into river rapids, required the rescue of people and pets, and closed schools.
Pittsburgh Public Schools announced the closure of at least 10 schools Friday because of limited access to water in buildings. Schools in Mount Lebanon and Brentwood Borough were also closed.
Pittsburgh police say that a 24-inch (61-centimeter) main broke in the morning and that three people were rescued from two homes.
