More Than A Dozen Landslides Wreak Havoc Across Pittsburgh Area

More than a dozen landslides throughout the Pittsburgh area have been wreaking havoc for the past week, forcing residents to evacuate and shutting down roads. A major slide on the border of Duquesne Heights and the West End destroyed a home on Sunday. The slide started Friday afternoon with mud spilling onto Greenleaf Street. The homeowner and his wife were ordered to evacuate as a precaution. Crews tried to clear away the debris Saturday and the residents were allowed back in to save essential belongings, but by Sunday morning, officials said it was clear the slide wasn’t stopping.
