An oil pipe in Los Angeles county ruptured early Thursday morning, spilling at least 10,000 gallons of crude oil into streets. The spilled oil covers roughly half a mile in Glendale and is reportedly knee-deep in some areas, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

The 20-inch pipeline leaked at about 12:15 am, reportedly shooting oil as high as 30 feet in the air. It was shut down remotely and is no longer leaking, according to the LAFD.

NBC Los Angeles reports that several businesses in the area have been affected; at least one—The Gentlemen's Club—was covered with oil and evacuated.

Too greasy even for a club like that? It *must* have been bad.

Hmm, quite an expensive cleanup. Probably have to excavate about 18 inches from the street and any ground contamination.

Unless they just blow it off and leave the hazmat for later generations.
