Then I he-man the washer out of the way because the main water shut off valve is in this obscure location that isn’t accessible without moving the washer.
This old ass apartments stupid water shut off valve are all corroded and broken.
Luckily was able to shut off the main but even the main still let some water through.
Lesson learned. Hire a fucking plumber. So that’s exactly what I did after this little adventure
