"I think it has moved another 20 feet from last night... We're now seeing entire homes that have collapsed and are into the ravine behind their homes. It is moving quickly," Hahn said. About 16 people were forced to evacuate shortly after a water leak was reported at around 4 p.m. Saturday on Peartree Lane.Some homeowners have been in the neighborhood for as short as two months, others decades. For the homes that are completely gone, the concern now is whether insurance will cover their total loss.
"We thought something was amiss because all through the day and night we heard cracks in the house," said one resident evacuated, Weber Yen. "And then, you know, the frequency became more and more frequent."
