CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A 6-inch waterline break has left puddles of water sitting at the intersection of Glazebrook and Reid near an HEB on South Alameda Street. 

It will take until the end of the day to fix, Corpus Christi Water representative Judy Lapointe said. 

Engineers on scene said the age of the pipes is part of issue, but Lapointe said they won't know the exact cause until the line can be dig up. 

She also said the water was turned off and that nearby businesses would not have their water supply impacted. 

A 3NEWS viewer reported water shooting out of the street.
