ATLANTA (CBS ATLANTA) -

Early Sunday morning, crews completed repairing a broken water main break in downtown Atlanta.

The pipe broke Saturday afternoon, sending water gushing onto Auburn Avenue Northeast.

The break was located in front of the Big Bethel AME Church between Jesse Hill Jr. Drive Northeast and Piedmont Avenue Northeast. 

Sandbags were placed in front of businesses threatened by rushing water.
