ASSUMPTION PARISH, LA (WAFB) -
Mysterious bubbles are rising up out of an Assumption Parish bayou. Officials are trying to figure what's causing them.

Take a ride down Bayou Corne, and there are bubbles of all sizes along the waterway.

"We have reported on May 30th a pipeline leak, which started us coming out and investigating a bubbling in Bayou Corne," said Assumption Parish Homeland Security Director John Boudreaux.

Since then though, pipeline officials have not ruled that out just yet, but said it's unlikely. So now, investigators are going through the process of elimination.

Dunno if the two events are related but it seemed worth mentioning.
