Cars Trapped In Mud After Rain Brings Flash Flooding To Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Flash flooding north of Los Angeles sent water and mud flowing into canyons and across roadways Thursday, trapping drivers and closing a stretch of one of the state's main north-south freeways.

"Due to the drought and fires, all the rain coming down heavily is causing floods," CHP Officer Andrew Mack said. "We have a lot of people up there trapped on the roadway."
