Several San Francisco homeowners are cleaning up a big mess after a water main broke, flooding homes and backyards.
The incident happened Saturday morning on Laidley Street, in the city's Glen Park neighborhood.
Officials said that an 8-inch water main broke, flooding most of the backyards on the street.
By 3 p.m. Saturday, crews had fixed the break and cleaned up some of the water.
The city said the water main was built in 1929 and it likely broke because of its age.
