From FOX 8:
People should be advised the area is down to one lane and police issued a parking advisory for the streets (not far from police headquarters) for the time being.
Cleveland Water reported the break took place after a main plug gave way, potentially due to “nearby utility work.” They said drinking water has not been affected and that water service continues in the area.
