Just more than a month after two workers died in Boston after a water main break flooded the trench they were working in, another water break early Wednesday morning flooded city streets, this time setting off several manhole fires in Chinatown.
Two workers employed by a drain-cleaning contractor were trapped and drowned on Oct. 21, when a punctured main sent water flooding into a 12-ft-deep trench where they were working, according to the Boston Fire Dept.
