Hollywood Hills water main break floods road in Laurel Canyon

A water main break caused water to rush down a Hollywood Hills roadway on Thursday afternoon, resulting in a partial closure of Wonderland Avenue.

The break was reported at 1:30 p.m., and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power said crews responded to the area of the 8500 block of W. Wonderland Ave. Work is underway to isolate the affected pipe.

Aerial footage showed flowing water on the street in front of Wonderland Avenue Elementary School.

Crews with the Los Angeles Fire Department are also at the scene.

About 100 customers are affected, and LAWDP said the initial damage assessment is still underway.
