A 56-year-old woman was rushed to hospital with serious steam burns after a water pipe burst inside a Flemingdon Park apartment building early Tuesday morning.

It happened on the fourth floor of a building on St. Dennis Drive near Eglinton Avenue and Don Mills Road at around 6:30 a.m.

The water to the building has been shut off as crews work to repair the pipe.
