DANA POINT, Calif. — A tiny amount of radiation could have escaped into the atmosphere from a Southern California nuclear power plant after a water leak prompted operators to shut down the reactor as a precaution, but plant workers and the public were not endangered, officials said Wednesday. The leak was detected Tuesday afternoon in the Unit 3 reactor at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, about 45 miles north of San Diego.
