Flooding turns submerged German street into raging torrent
A street in Germany has turned into a raging torrent as floodwater rushes through the area.
The country has been hit by record rainfall, causing rivers to burst their banks, with the states of Rhineland-Palatinate and North Rhine-Westphalia worst affected.
Dramatic footage, filmed in Weisweiler, shows floodwater rushing down completely submerged roads, with only the top of one car visible as a wheelie bin is dragged away.
At least 100 people have died in the catastrophic flooding across Germany and Belgium, with hundreds more left unaccounted for.
