Car flips in Santee, striking fire hydrant and causing 50-foot geyser
SANTEE, Calif. (FOX 5/KUSI) — A single-car crash in Santee on Saturday sent a massive geyser of water shooting into the air after a vehicle flipped upside down and struck a fire hydrant, authorities confirmed. According to officials with the Santee Fire Department, the crash happened at 11:24 a.m. on Town Center Parkway, just east of the intersection with Cuyamaca Street. Witnesses reported seeing the vehicle traveling at a slightly high rate of speed before the driver lost control and flipped over.

No other vehicles were involved, and no bystanders were hurt. City crews remained on scene Saturday afternoon to assess any road damage and ensure the hydrant was fully repaired.

Sheared hydrant soaks high-voltage power lines in San Fernando Valley
A sheared fire hydrant triggered a massive geyser of water spewing into high-voltage power lines Monday in the northeastern San Fernando Valley neighborhood of Shadow Hills. Officials with the Los Angeles Fire Department received reports of the incident, in the 9200 block of North Sunland Boulevard, north of La Tuna Canyon Road just before 6 p.m. Details are limited and it's unclear if the hydrant was sheared by a motorist or if a water main burst, causing the explosive and continued stream of water, which was visibly rattling power lines and flooding the street. Dozens of images posted to the Citizen App show the geyser shooting water over the top of the lines, dousing numerous transformers and soaking the intersection. 12 Mexican migrants 'jettisoned by pleasure craft' arrested in Long Beach Officers with the Los Angeles Police Department, as well as crews with the Department of Transportation cordoned off the intersection, forcing motorists to turn around and find alternate routes to their destinations. Los Angeles Water and Power responded to the area as well and were able to shut the supply of water off, though it's unclear if it's a temporary patch or if the situation has been resolved. There was no word on whether residents in the area, many of whom came outside to watch the ordeal, lost access to water in their homes. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
