Devastating Landslide Strikes Wealthy Southern California Community, Destroying Homes and Forcing Evacuations
A landslide on Southern California's Palos Verdes Peninsula has caused significant damage to luxury homes, leaving them in a state of collapse and instability. Twelve homes have been red-tagged as unsafe, with residents given just 20 minutes to evacuate. The cause of the landslide is still unknown, but heavy rains from the previous winter are suspected. Many displaced residents are unsure if they are insured for such losses. Damaging landslides have occurred in the area before, and Southern California's complex landscapes contribute to such incidents.
