A fire hydrant was damaged and a boil water notice issued after a wreck at Old Cain Ridge Road and Miller Street this morning.

A semi-truck driven by Fred McGee, age and address unavailable, hit the hydrant, Vicksburg officer Jonathan Tillman said, causing water to spew.

A boil notice was issued for about 10 residents of Old Cain Ridge Road, west of U.S. 61 South, city water mains supervisor Dane Lovell said. Officials were checking to see if a home on Miller would need to boil.
