Landslide in Portuguese Bend area threatens homes
A fresh slide in the Portuguese Bend area sent dirt into an uninhabited path near the renehmented Antonio Reyes area. No injuries or homes damaged, but the slope, near the public restricted zone, has drawn speed and dust clouds. The incident follows months of prior slides that have covered over 200 acres and threatened about 170 homes, with landowners filing over 8 million dollars in damages. The sheriff said no property is endangered along the boulevard right of way and work remains halted due to ongoing danger.
