Rotten Smell Reeks Havoc Across S. Calif.
Hector Becerra, Phil Willon and Andrew Blankstein, Los Angeles Times
When the rotten egg smell wafted into the Santa Clarita United Methodist Church in Saugus on Monday morning, Kathy Gray thought the church’s sewer pipe had burst.
More than 70 miles to the east, steelworker Chris Tatum’s nostrils got the punch in Riverside. He assumed a brush fire had just broken out.
“It reeks,” he said. “It smells like rotten mush.”
Southern California awoke Monday morning to a foul odor that wouldn’t go away.
Residents clogged 911 lines with calls, prompting health officials from Ventura County to Palm Springs to send investigators looking for everything from a toxic spill to a sewer plant leak.
