Water Main Break In Park Forest Looks Like Old Faithful: Police

PARK FOREST, IL — The comedy geniuses at the Park Forest Police Department are back at it this morning, informing residents of the village and nearby towns to avoid one particular street in town.

There's a water main break in the 400 block of Todd Street, and a photo captured on Twitter shows water gushing high into the air with a minor flood beginning to form on the street.

Police in Park Forest, who always bring a sense of humor to social media, compared the Todd Street water main break to the Old Faithful geyser at Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming.

"And no, you cannot use it as a free car wash," they added.

Please use caution when traveling on the 400 block of Todd Street — our Public Works Department is fixing a water main break that resembles Wyoming’s Old Faithful Geyser.
