Mud Brigade Clears Mud in Glendora California Homes
William Dutton and about two dozen neighbors with shovels and wheelbarrows battled four foot deep mud in Glendora after eight days of heavy rain. Doors, furniture, and a bedroom were buried as crews sandbagged and rescued belongings. Some residents, including Duttons, faced mortgage strain and insurance gaps while planning a temporary move to an apartment with three daughters.
