A bottled water company owned in part by Sean " Diddy" Combs and Mark Wahlberg is pledging to donate 1 million bottles of water to the residents of Flint, Michigan. The company, AQUAhydrate, says it will begin sending 5,000 cases of water to Flint and will continue to provide bottles to residents until the city's water problems are fixed. The company says the water deliveries are expected to begin Wednesday. High levels of lead have been found in Flint's water since officials switched from the Detroit water system and began drawing from the Flint River as a cost-saving measure. Wahlberg and Combs invested and became the face of the Los Angeles-based bottled water company in 2013.
