Washington homeowners fear living by 'Armageddon Creek'

Posted: Updated:
EVERETT, WA (KPTV) -

Some homeowners in Washington say they're living on the edge of Armageddon and they want something done about it.

It's in Everett, and the locals call it "Armageddon Creek."

The sliding hillside has forced several people to abandon their homes. They say a drain system was incorrectly expanded and caused the land to slide and home to collapse.

People living in the area believe at least 10 more homes could be threatened.

The city said it will provide a soil study but calls the situation a natural event with no link to the drain.
