The body of a man has been discovered after floodwaters swept through the southeastern Swiss town of Misox, located in the alpine valley of Graubünden, also known as Grisons. Three people had gone missing following the floods triggered by a massive thunderstorm on Friday night.
Evacuations and Rescue Efforts
The intense storm caused rivers to overflow, flooding streets and leading to the evacuation of several dozen residents. Initially, four people were reported missing. One woman was found under rocks and transported to a hospital in Lugano.
Search Continues for Missing Persons
The body of a man was found eight kilometers (five miles) from where he disappeared, according to police reports on Sunday. Rescuers are continuing their search for the remaining two missing individuals, although a police spokesman indicated that the likelihood of finding them alive is low.
