WATER MAIN BURST CLAIMS PETS’ LIVES

Several guinea pigs have died, after another water main burst on the Central Coast.

Three properties in the North Gosford area were inundated, shortly after 8am on Wednesday.

A local family says they lost several of their pets, when their backyard was flooded.

In a statement, Central Coast Council says three garages were damaged, and has apologised.

Water should be restored to the area by 7pm.
