'Apocalyptic' storm floods Sardinia, 9 dead
None
Italian news reports say a violent rainstorm that flooded entire parts of the Mediterranean island of Sardinia has led to the deaths of at least nine people.
Olbia Mayor Gianni Giovanelli told Sky TG24 early Tuesday that the city had been destroyed by the "apocalyptic" storm, with several dead and several missing. Bridges were felled by swollen rivers and water levels reached 3 meters (yards) in some places. (AP)
