The only thing weve got from this is that they were together. Its not the way you want your parents to go, she added.The floods, described as the worst decades, have claimed the lives of more than 200 people, as rescuers race against time to locate survivors. Spanish rescue teams have not found any casualties so far in Valencias Bonaire shopping mall underground car park, the interior ministry said on Monday. The ministry said work was continuing in the car park, which has 5,700 parking spaces, to find out if there may be fatalities.Thousands of Spaniards have flocked to affected towns to help with rescue efforts and clean up, but anger has been rising over a perceived lack of warning over the risk of flooding, and slow or insufficient support in the aftermath. The post Couple found de@d in their car after getting caught in Valencia’s devastatingflashfloods appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
