Two Dead and Over 400 Injured in Storm
Posted on 2024-10-04 06:59:13
The Central Emergency Response Center says two people have died and 490 other
sustained injuries due to strong winds and heavy rain brought by Typhoon
Krathon.

One peron remains missing.

Meanwhile, heavy rainfall brought by Typhoon Krathon has caused flash floods
and mudslides across Taiwan, damaging villages, roads and residential
buildings.

One mudslide was reported on Dongxin Road in Keelung City after soil fell
from a nearby hill into a residential unit.

Another mudslide was reported on the city's Ren 4th Road, where a mudslide
surged into the first floor of a residential building, while an apartment
complex on Keelung's Tiaohe Street experienced a landslide that also affected
the Vita Hospital next door.

In Kaohsiung, powerful gusts shattered the glass doors of a convenience
store, swept down a tin roof crushing two parked cars, blew over a tin wall
of a restaurant, as well as swept down lightweight steel frames from a
hospital which damaged nearby cars.

And in Taitung, the Shalun River overflowed in Taimali Township flooding
nearby industrial roads and farmland.
