SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle Public Utilities crews are repairing a 20-inch water line that broke early Wednesday, cutting service to a 200-square block area of south Seattle.

Spokesman Andy Ryan says the break flooded a block of S. Juneau Street and water was running down Martin Luther King Jr. Way until crews were able to shut off the flow.

The utility says homes and businesses will likely notice discolored water when service resumes.
