The City of Gallup experienced a water outage on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26 when there was a break on a connector near the airport which affects the northside and southside of the city.

He said the department learned of the problem around 7:10 am, when complaints began coming in from the trademark pressure zone.

Water service for the area was restored around 1:30...
