Motorhomes swept away as California riverbank crumbles in storm

As a historic winter storm lashed southern California, causing the Santa Clara River to wash out part of a hillside at a Valencia RV park on Saturday, a video captured large chunks of the embankment falling into the river, taking with it two recreational vehicles and a tree. Park officials said they were moving some of the vehicles away from the river at that time to avoid more damage.
