Rains pour through Statehouse ceiling

Sudden downpours have sent water streaming into the Massachusetts Statehouse.

Workers in the gold-domed state capital raced down a hallway Monday on the fourth floor of the building with plastic barrels to catch the water.

The historic building, more than 200 years old, has been plagued by leaks in recent years, prompting calls for more repair work.

Construction workers have been laboring on parts of the building's roof during much of the summer.
