HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. —

Crews raced Sunday morning to contain the damage from a major oil spill off the Orange County coast that left crude spoiling beaches, killing fish and birds and threatening local wetlands.

The oil slick is believed to have originated from a pipeline leak, pouring 126,000 gallons into the coastal waters and seeping into the Talbert Marsh as lifeguards deployed floating barriers known as booms to try to stop further incursion, said Jennifer Carey, Huntington Beach city spokesperson.

At sunrise Sunday, oil was on the sand in some parts of Huntington Beach with slicks visible in the ocean as well.

"We classify this as a major spill, and it is a high priority to us to mitigate any environmental concerns," Carey said. It's all hands on deck."

ORANGE COUNTY, Calif. — A set of triplets in California are all pregnant at the same time.

The Tran triplets of Orange County are each due to deliver their babies over the next four months, KCBS reports.

Gina, Nina, and Victoria say they were born four minutes apart and they’ve shared many milestones over the years.

The 35-year-old sisters told KCBS that they sought to have their babies around the same time after learning the first sibling was expecting.

The sisters say they’re expecting to deliver their babies with the same OBGYN at MemorialCare Saddleback Medical Center in July, August, and November.

When the bundles of joy arrive, the sisters they’ll even out the number of nieces and nephew – three boys and three girls. Though, they say that part wasn’t planned.
