ALLENDALE, Mich. - The Grand Valley State University water tower apparently sprung a leak overnight.

Staff at GVSU tell us that a power outage from the high winds affected the computer system at the water tower.  The workings of the tower then kept pumping water to areas that it shouldn't and then a leak burst out.  It is being repaired today.

Kevin "Danger" VanderMeer shot video of the leaking water tower and joined us by phone on FOX 17 News this morning. Watch his video above.
