Anyone see what happened at Chipotle on 2/15?

Yesterday around 2:00pm, I walked by Chipotle and saw that it looked like all the alarms and sprinkers had been going off. The place was soaked -- the inside was leaking water into the street through the cracks of the doors and all. I had wanted a burrito, but I had to settle for Amsterdam instead.

Did anyone happened to see/hear what happened?

I don't know about this specific incident, but pipes have been bursting all over the region over the past couple of frigid days (see here and here)

Well, they have a new safety policy. Maybe it went into practice.

"Besides the new hand-washing requirements, the company officials told employees an automatic closure policy is now in effect if an employee or customer vomits in a Chipotle restaurant."

Sprinklers seem like overkill, though, I'll bet it was a pipe break.

Eater Boston has some photos and was guessing burst pipes, but no one was commenting. http://boston.eater.com/2016/2/16/11018252/davis-square-chipotle-under-water

It was definitely a burst sprinkler pipe. Yesterday they put a permit on the front door which describes the repairs they need to make.
