US EditionHeavy rains continue to pound Puerto Rico, causing 2nd death
- Prolonged heavy rainfall in Puerto Rico led to a landslide on Saturday night in Toa Baja, resulting in the death of a 44-year-old man and injuries to a woman.
- The persistent rain triggered flooding, infrastructure damage, and forced at least five municipalities, including Vega Alta and Cidra, to declare states of emergency.
- Several towns faced disrupted water services due to ruptured pipes, with Caguas halting filtration plant operations and Aguas Buenas isolating 26 families after sinkholes and floods.
- Mayor María Vega Pagán called the situation "a daily challenge that continues to grow," while officials like José D. Sepúlveda Sánchez urged immediate attention to critical water access issues.
- Authorities delivered aid across affected areas, but heavy rains continued on Sunday, prolonging flash flood warnings and leaving families stranded with precarious access to basic services.
