The water irrigation stop

When they shut down the irrigation water, the water in the broken pipe stop running and im glad they stop it because if not? maybe we will going to have a big flood all over our yard. Our backyard right now is a mess and im glad because today its starting to get dry. I really worried yesterday and all our neighbors are all asking whats happening. So i told them that my husband accidentally broke the pipe and we dont know also that the irrigation water will opened that time so Mike also shocked about what happen when he see the water starting coming out to the broken pipe.
