Water main break causes road collapse in downtown Cleveland

The Cleveland Police Department is asking everybody to "please avoid the area" of Ontario Street and St. Clair Avenue. That request from police was posted shortly before 10:30 a.m. Sunday due to a water main break in downtown Cleveland. In an update provided to 3News shortly after noon, an official with Cleveland Water says they've controlled the leak flow and "are working to isolate the break location." A few hours later, a large portion of the intersection collapsed as seen in the picture here: https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/local/cleveland/cleveland-water-main-break-ontario-street-st-clair-avenue/95-95723fd8-d127-4d36-88fa-62d975ee4bb6 -- At 3News, we’re not here to tell you the news, we’re here to share the stories that you say matter most to you.
