Description

Following heavy rainfall, numerous areas in Bavaria suffered floods, such as in Willersdorf, Hochstadt an der Aisch and Uehlfeld, as seen on Monday.

Farms, houses, crops and fields were damaged by the water, while some households were trapped due to the strong flows.

In large areas, clean-up work was still not possible due to the persistent flooding.

The flood nearly became a deadly trap for a young woman in Hochstadt on Saturday when she was swept away by a current and almost drowned, before a police officer jumped into the water and rescued her.
