BOWLING GREEN, MO -- It was a wet start to the day at the Bowling Green Walmart.

The sprinkler system malfunctioned in the front entryway.

The store was evacuated while crews worked to clean up the mess.

Luckily the damage was contained to the front entryway.

No murchandise was damaged and theres no word on what caused the sprinkler system to turn on.

The store will be closed while crews clean up the water.

We mentioned on Facebook that the store would re-open sometime after 8:30 a.m. Wednesday and one Facebook user asked, "do they need a deal on a few mops ...????"
