A broken water main has sent water flooding into the Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia.

Initial reports indicate that the pipe has been shut off and the museum's collection doesn't appear to be damaged.

A water main has broken outside our entrance, and we're asking people to avoid the area until the problem is resolved. Thank you!
