Truck busts water lines

Marion city workers had to replace water pipes at three ruptures Monday morning after a cement truck ran over a fire hydrant, causing breaks along the water line, according to city administrator Brian Wells. 
   Wells said the ruptures left some residents without water near Cedar and Lawrence Sts., but workers localized the breaks and restored service. They had to replace three sections of 10-inch water pipes, he said.

   Wells said the city would be “seeking compensation” from the truck operator, which was supplying concrete for a nearby residential foundation.
