It's most likely a busted underground pipe (about 1 ft underground, or a busted sprinkler where it's attached to main pipe (about 8 inches deep) both easy fixes. It's just PVC which is easy to fix or an elbow under the sprinkler or a busted sprinkler head. A massive leak underground could cause a small sinkhole if not corrected.

Given the already established contentious nature between them, I would be very hesitant to go onto someone else's property and dig things up...even if it was done with the 'best of intentions.'
