SELLERSBURG, Ind. (WDRB) -- The town of Sellersburg, Indiana, has restored water service to the remaining 400 or so customers still without it after a water main break Wednesday afternoon.
Town officials said a company laying digital fiber hit a primary water line along U.S. 31, near Broadway, destroying about 30 feet of it.

Around 7:30 p.m. Friday, the town announced service was restored to the remaining affected customers.
Town employees told WDRB News that 40-50 businesses had also been affected. Ivy Tech Community College, Dairy Queen and Cracker Barrel are just a few that have had to close their doors.
Now that water is turned back on, customers are asked to boil water — at a rolling boil — for at least one minute before use. The town asked customers to boil any tap water for drinking, making ice, washing dishes, brushing death and preparing food.
