Residents told to pump water out themselves after main break floods Wilkinsburg apartments

A water main break in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania led to flooding in several nearby apartments, leaving residents without access to water. Despite this, residents have been told to pump water out themselves, rather than relying on the local authorities for assistance. The situation has raised important questions about how to deal with emergencies and who bears responsibility for public safety. While some residents have taken matters into their own hands and are working to resolve the problem, others feel abandoned by local officials who they say should be doing more to help. The incident serves as a reminder that emergencies can strike at any time, and that local communities need to work together to ensure that everyone remains safe, even in the face of unexpected challenges.
