Raging flood destroys bridge in Taiwan after typhoon hits coast
A bridge in southern Taiwan was destroyed and washed away by raging floods on Saturday.
Large amounts of rain have also hit the east coast as typhoon Lupit turned into a tropical depression, making landfall.
Footage from Kaohsiung City captures the moment a bridge collapses, with muddy floodwater first running through and over the structure, before pulling it away.
Elsewhere in Taoyuan City, locals gathered to watch a reservoir overflow.
Lupit, the ninth typhoon of the year to affect the area, formed on 4 August.
