KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Crews from the Kansas City, Missouri Water Department are working to repair an 8-inch water main break Tuesday morning.

The break, located at 1533 Grand Blvd., caused a sink hole in the roadway that captured a small passenger car.

Water was shut off between Truman Road and 16th Street for repairs, said Kansas City Emergency Communications Coordinator Heather Frierson.

Around 14 KC Water customers are experiencing "low or no water pressure," per Frierson.

No injuries were reported.

A Water Department spokesperson did not immediately know if any customers were without water service or how long repairs might take.
