Rivers Casino Pittsburgh temporarily closed Friday after a cracked refrigeration pipe leaked onto the gaming floor.

The casino on the city’s North Shore reopened around 8 p.m., according to a staffer who answered the phone.

Repairs were made and crews cleaned up the area after the break, said Jack Horner, a spokesperson for the casino.
