HARTFORD, Conn. (WFSB) — Several jails in Connecticut are dealing with some water issues.

Officials with the department of correction said everyone at the Cybulski, Osborn, and Carl Robinson correctional institutions are being told not to drink the water.

The water has been tested but until those results come back, the DOC said it’s providing bottled water and portable toilets.

No further details were released.
