DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — Several neighborhood properties are now damaged after a water main broke in DeKalb County.

The water main break happened on LaVista Road near Midvale Road around 6 a.m., Wednesday.

Channel 2's Christian Jennings talked to neighbors who said they saw water rushing in the area for hours.

"But, then, I looked out the window and saw the water coming," Dilek said.

When Canan Dilek and her family first woke up and heard the sound of rushing water, they thought it was raining outside.
