A water main break near the South McAllen Water Plant may cause a temporary loss of water service in the area, city officials said.

Crews are responding to the break near the intersection of S. 23rd Street and Expressway 83 that was reported Wednesday evening. 

Channel 5 News cameras saw McAllen police and fire department vehicles blocking the street. 

A city spokesperson said the break may also cause lower than normal water pressure.

Officials have not said by when the break is expected to be repaired or what caused it.
