Italian Firefighters Search for Child Missing After Floods

Italian firefighters searched for a child missing in raging floodwaters in the town of Lamezia Terme on Friday morning, October 5, after finding the bodies of a mother and son the night before.

The flooding in the Calabria region prompted emergency evacuations and flight cancellations, local reports said. Schools were closed in Catania, Sicily, on Friday after about 50 mm of rain fell in just half an hour the day before. Credit: Vigili del Fuoco via Storyful
