Authorities say a broken Los Angeles County water main has caused flooding and created a sinkhole in an industrial area of Stevenson Ranch.
Los Angeles County Fire Inspector Steve Zermeno says crews were able to shut the water off after about an hour early Saturday.
Water flowed two-feet-deep in places and eroded a 30-foot wide sinkhole in the road.
No damage to homes or businesses were reported.
Valencia Water Co., which maintains the line, says customers weren't affected by the rupture.
