Mudslide slams Sherman Oaks neighborhood

The strong rainstorm that has been dousing Southern California isn’t done creating hazards for residents just yet.

In Sherman Oaks, a mudslide partially buried at least one car on Longview Valley Road and apparently did so in a violent fashion, as splashes of mud could be seen almost all the way up the front of a nearby garage.

Mud filled much of the roadway, and rushing water, including a strong stream coming down a nearby hillside, covered the rest.

Area residents were out in force clearing mud and opening up paths of escape for rainwater.
