Washington Landslide

People cry for help from underneath rubble after 3 die in Washington landslide


A landslide just north of Seattle, Washington has left three people dead, ten missing and several others injured. Over 20 homes were destroyed or damaged in this disaster. Many other residents in this are are still in danger however because the landslide cut off the road into the town and blocked a major river, leaving a strong possibility of severe flooding. Many people are being forced to evacuate their homes and move to shelters that are being set up for people with nowhere else to go. Ten people are still unaccounted for and no one knows where they are or if they are even alive. Even the people who were not directly affected by the land slide are still in danger.
