Pratt courts Valley voters in Sherman Oaks as LA mayor bid heats up

Reality TV personality Spencer Pratt campaigned in Sherman Oaks, courting voters in a district represented by rival Nithya Raman as he runs for Los Angeles mayor. He pushes a tougher-law enforcement stance and a “treatment first” approach to homelessness, argues for expanding LAPD staffing, and criticizes city handling of crime and the Palisades wildfire recovery. The event drew residents frustrated with safety and quality-of-life issues; Pratt remains behind Mayor Karen Bass in polls but has shown fundraising momentum, with some attendees traveling from outside LA who cannot vote in the city.

"Los Angeles Landslide Devastates Homes and Forces Evacuations: Exclusive Footage"

A landslide in the posh Los Angeles neighborhood of Sherman Oaks damaged multiple homes, with one under construction collapsing completely. No injuries were reported, and several people were evacuated. The Los Angeles Fire Department used pumps to remove water from a swimming pool to alleviate stress on the hillside. The landslide may have been caused by heavy winter storms saturating the ground. Record rainfall earlier this year in Los Angeles led to multiple landslides and mudslides, causing damage to several multimillion dollar houses in the Hollywood Hills.
