Two homes slid off a cliff this past weekend in Draper City, prompting neighbors to leave their homes just to be safe.
DRAPER CITY, Utah – A Utah community is coming together after a landslide on Saturday forced families to evacuate.
Hansen said the landslides came in a series, followed by the cracking and popping of the houses as they slid down the cliffside. “It’s all shocking,” Jamie Hansen said. “But we obviously have been worried and expecting something for a long time, so the imminent-like emergency nature of it makes sense but at the same feels strange.”“Strangers, neighbors, friends, ward members, everyone has asked what they can do to help, which I’m very grateful for,” Hansen said. “So I was like, you know what, I guess bring boxes. So, we have boxes and lots of people.
“The whole neighborhood has come out because they are such an incredible family,” Hallstrom said. “I think that’s just the Utah spirit. We are just here, and we’re all in this together, and we have to help out each other.”
