At about 8 o'clock last night, a 1-ton freight car driven by a 62-year-old Mr. Mo, in Munbaek-myeon, Jincheon-gun, Chungbuk, was caught in the rapids.

It was reported that there was an accident after going to see the paddy fields that were flooded with heavy rain.

Yesterday, up to 46 mm of rain was poured into Jincheon per hour, and a 66-year-old woman hit by a 15-ton top car disappeared into a waterway and was found dead 10 hours after the search.
