San Pedro Falling In To The Sea (Updated)

A huge landslide fell in to the sea at San Pedro.

The coastal road, Paseo Del Mar, was closed last month as it developed cracks and began to sink. Heavy rains and coastal erosion finally got the best of the road, and it was pulled down in to the Pacific Ocean.
