Two killed in Pennsylvania flooding

FELTON, Pa. (AP) — A woman and her 4-year-old daughter drowned on Mother's Day when their car was swept off a road into a rain-swollen creek, officials said.

Karen B. King, 34, and Hanna J. King, who lived in nearby Brogue, were swept away at about 10:30 p.m. Sunday and were found in their submerged car early Monday, said Vivian Howell of the York County Coroner's Office.

The National Weather Service estimated that 3 to 5 inches of rain fell in the area over four hours Sunday night. (Related map: National rainfall forecast).

Authorities made numerous rescues, some from second-floor windows, and the flooding closed at least five roads in low-lying areas south of Red Lion. No injuries were reported.

"Some may be closed into Wednesday morning, given the extensive mudslides and debris," Lowell Briggs, a York County Emergency spokesman, said early Monday.
