Description: NOW toilet water pours into Penn Station... NEW YORK (FOX 5 NEWS) - As bad as the commute through Penn Station in Manhattan is these days it got even worse Wednesday when a ceiling pipe burst dumping gallons of disgusting-smelling water on a Long Island Rail Road concourse. Several commuters did what they do: record and post video to social media. The videos showed a shower of water falling on the floor which was taped off so workers could deal with the mess. "... pretty sure penn station is raining sewage rn" Kari Szul (@kariszul) tweeted. "It's raining? It's pouring? Nope just a leak at Penn Station!" Marigo Mihalos (@MarigoPR) tweeted. "We apologize for the inconvenience caused by a leak from one of our building pipes" a spokesperson for management company Vornado said in a statement to Fox 5 News. "The situation is now under control and we are working to clean and restore the affected area prior to this evening's rush hour." Video from a Fox 5 News crew showed water found its way down to rail platforms too. Crews taped off a staircase and part of a platform that were flooded and wet. LIRR service was not affected. It's raining? It's pouring? Nope just a leak at Penn Station! Happening live! @rosannascotto @Fox5Teresa http://pic.twitter.com/o5XpSaYJtN Marigo Mihalos (@MarigoPR) May 3 2017
