Water has been cut off to about two dozen residents after an 8-inch main ruptured in south Fort Worth.

The rupture caused the road to collapse, leaving a huge hole about 5-feet across on the 5900-block of Waits Avenue, south of Interstate 20.

Repair crews are on the scene.

Officials say they expect water service to be returned to residents this evening.
