Sewer main broke causing a stink

Lake Worth Beach residents say they were left in the dark after sewage spill

Lake Worth Beach officials say the spill was caused by an AT&T contractor who hit the sewer main along Florida Mango Road near 10th Ave South

Last Wednesday, a sewer main broke in Lake Worth Beach, causing a big stink.

Viewers have called our newsroom concerned about the leak, dead fish, and the awful smell.

According to Lake Worth Beach officials, an AT&T worker putting in fiber optic cable broke the sewer main.

The gushing sewage caused part of the road to cave in.

The liquid eventually spilled into the canal and even into Lake Osborne.

  2. Some of this sewage went into Lake Osborne.
    It's going to cost millions to clean-up and who will be stuck with the bill without a lawsuit?
