Three water main breaks flood streets in Los Angeles

At least three water main breaks sent torrents of water down streets and flooded underground parking garages in separate areas of Los Angeles.

The largest rupture occurred before dawn Thursday near Vermont Avenue and Melrose Avenue in Hollywood, buckling pavement and forcing road closures.

Water was halfway up the doors of cars parked in underground garages. No damage estimates have been released.

About a mile to the west another water main break flooded roadways near Paramount Studios in Hollywood.

To the north in the San Fernando Valley, a much smaller rupture sent water into the streets of Lakeview Terrace.
