Typhoon kills 11 in Taiwan, heads for China

None

Hundreds of Taiwanese soldiers searched for a missing bus carrying 19 Chinese tourists Saturday, combing a rugged mountainous area stripped bare by massive mudslides unleashed by Typhoon Megi on its path to southern China.

 

Landslides caused by the typhoon killed nine people and buried a Buddhist temple in hardest hit Ilan county in Taiwan's northeast, where a record 45 inches (114 centimeters) of rain fell over 48 hours. (AP)
