A soap detergent spill turned a Richardson creek bright red over the weekend, reportedly due to carwash runoff. The spill was reported when large amounts of red liquid were seen flowing in the creek. The city has since cleaned 14,000,000 gallons of water. The incident was caused by an illegal carwash wastewater dump.
