NEW: Five water main breaks in just one week are raising new questions about the state of L.A.’s aging infrastructure. The biggest: a 110-year-old, 36-inch pipe that ruptured in West Hollywood, sending 17 million gallons of water through the Sunset Strip, flooding businesses, apartments and parking garages. LADWP reportedly replaces about 45 miles of pipe each year… less than 1% of its roughly 7,000-mile water system.

WATCH: Four months before launching his campaign against Karen Bass, Spencer Pratt attended a Pacific Palisades fire recovery event hoping to ask the mayor whether she supported a congressional investigation into the fire.

Pratt announced his mayoral campaign Jan. 7, 2026.) Now, less than a year later, Pratt and Bass are facing off in Tuesday’s Los Angeles mayoral primary.
