6,700-gallon sewage spill closes Will Rogers State Beach in Los Angeles, prompting health officials' warning and pending bacterial tests.

6,700 gallons of sewage spilled due to tree roots blocking a sewer line, temporarily closing Will Rogers State Beach in Los Angeles. The beach, north and south of Sunset Boulevard, was closed with health officials warning people to avoid contact with ocean water and wet sand. Water sampling for bacterial levels began, and the beach closure will remain in effect until two consecutive tests show bacterial levels within health standards.
