MADRID: At least three people died and three were missing as record rainfall caused heavy flooding in central Spain, shutting roads, subway lines and high-speed train connections, authorities said on Monday .
Three people died in the countryside around the central city of Toledo, where the weather service AEMET registered record rainfall of 90 litres per square metre on Sunday. "It just kept raining and we were a little scared, but we were indoors so we were safe," said Isabella Stewart, a US missionary living in Toledo as she was taking a bus.
Another Toledo resident, Ruben Gonzalez, said:"I live four blocks away and it was very strong. Everything is flooded. This is crazy." The man went missing with his son when their car was dragged into the Alberche River after an avalanche caused by a sudden spate.Rescuers were also looking for a woman who disappeared under similar circumstances near Toledo and for an 84-year-old man who was dragged away by streams of water and mud in Villamanta, west of Madrid.
