SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — A boil water notice has been issued following a water main break that caused two sinkholes in Miramar Tuesday morning, according to the City of San Diego.

The break, which happened Tuesday morning, caused an excavator working on the project to fall into a sinkhole on Dowdy Drive, severing a water line and San Diego Gas and Electric gas line.

The excavator was removed on Thursday morning, the City said.
