Flash Floods Kill 19 in France

At least 19 people are dead after record rainfall in southern France caused flash floods. The AP reports a dozen helicopters worked overnight in Var prefecture to evacuate people trapped by the waters, which reached about 6.5 feet high in some areas.

Footage posted to YouTube shows the flood waters coursing through the town center of Draguignan, and damage to dozens of vehicles.
