COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Walmart on West Broadway was closed Monday, and a worker told ABC 17 News that a water main break was responsible.

The parking lot appeared to be empty at about 11:30 a.m. A worker in a reflective vest told an ABC 17 News reporter that the store was closed "until further notice" because of a water main break.

A Walmart corporate spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for more information via email.

Columbia has three Walmart stores, with other locations on Grindstone Parkway in the southern part of the city and Conley Road in the northeast part of Columbia.
