Residents in San Diego’s South Bay were left to deal with a strong odor after thousands of gallons of sewage spilled onto a roadway.
The International Boundary and Water Commission confirmed that about 20,000 gallons spilled onto Hollister Street on Monday afternoon.
Just about a block away, there were hundreds of homeowners who said they have no choice but to put up with this years-long issue. They told ABC 10News the smell gets worse at night and during warmer temperatures. Another homeowner, Marty Valdez, said he's lived in the area for only five years and has thought about selling his home to get away from the problem. But he worries about not finding a buyer willing to buy and deal with the constant smell.
