Buckets are getting filled up with mud and hauled off Shell Beach properties after the recent rainstorm.
Crews scooped up and filled three dump trucks worth of mud, rocks, and other debris that slid down the hill behind the properties in the Spyglass neighborhood. We are exactly backed up to the hillside. As of darkness Thursday, there was no sign of anything coming down, said resident Chris Finch.
He says he saw firefighters canvassing his neighborhood around midnight Friday. Hours later, daylight revealed the mudslide.
