One of the terminals John F. Kennedy International Airport in new York was evacuated Sunday because of a damaged water pipe. Weekend passengers were pretty tense because of the numerous cancellations and delays of flights due to weather conditions, so the evacuation has added to the confusion.

Emergency services tried as quickly as possible to isolate the damaged part of the aqueduct. However, the terminal was flooded with water. Reports of injuries or damage to property in the incident were reported.
The cause of the damage is established.
