Chaves County Sheriff Mike Herrington said he had to climb onto his car roof when rising floodwaters stranded the vehicle and several others, submerging them up to the windows.
309 people were rescued in the flash floods and at least two people have been reported dead according to the BBC’s US partner CBS. The Chaves County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that Herrington was rescued and unharmed.
