Reality TV stars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are suing the city of Los Angeles after losing their Pacific Palisades home to recent wildfires. They and over 20 property owners claim that the city's water department's failures directly hindered firefighting efforts. The complaint highlights issues with hydrants running dry and the Santa Ynez Reservoir being offline for repairs, leading to devastating property loss. The catastrophic fires, exacerbated by dry conditions, have caused significant destruction and prompted calls for investigations into the water utility's performance amid this disaster.
Without water from the reservoir, firefighters had to primarily rely on the water tanks, which were not designed to fight such a large fire.
The firefighters could not tackle the fire effectively due to the significant water supply issues, leading to detrimental consequences in the battle against the flames.
