Columbia, Apr 2 (IBNS): At least 193 people died as an avalanche of water from three overflowing rivers flooded a small city in Colombia in the US, media reports said.
The incident happened while people were in sleep, destroying their homes and cars.

Several trees have also been toppled as mudwater surged through the streets of the city.
