Police and firefighters responded to a messy scene in Napa Sunday night when a large hole opened up in a street and a water main ruptured, causing the roadway to flood, officials said.

The water main break occurred just before midnight on the 2500 block of Laurel Street, according to the Napa Police Department.

The water main break was secured before any homes were damaged, police said.

Police advised a portion of Laurel Street between Freeway Drive and Avon Avenue will be closed Monday to repair the damage.
