After a mudslide surged over a California highway, pulling automobiles across the road and causing kids to scramble to safety, around 50 people were stranded.
Parts of San Bernardino, Los Angeles, and Ventura counties had flood warnings and significant rainfall as a result of Hurricane Kay’s remnants.
Around 7.30 p.m. yesterday night, twenty automobiles were stranded on Pine Canyon Road in Lake Hughes due to shifting mud and debris, with several of the cars receiving water damage.
Firefighters and aircraft swooped in to rescue the trapped family and prevent the automobiles from being driven farther into danger.
One mother said that when her car was forced off the road, her two children had to climb on top of it.
While some were saved by firemen on the ground, others were lifted to safety by LAPD helicopters.
We have helicopters out there trying to get everyone safe, LA County Fire supervisor Imy Velderrain stated after there were no reported casualties.
Due to the mudslide, many roads were blocked, including the southbound Lake Hughes Road.
At 10.30 p.m. yesterday, Red Cross and Public Works were informed that the event was still ongoing.
Prior to the mudslide, flood warnings had been issued all through the evening, and San Bernadino county had received up to 1.25 inches of rain.
The majority of flood fatalities involve motor vehicles, hence it is advised that people exercise caution near water, underpasses, and locations with poor drainage.
