Two people have died after severe storms and flash flooding struck central Indiana, according to officials.
Storm impact
The storms brought heavy rain to the region, causing creeks and rivers to overflow and leading to widespread flooding. Emergency crews performed water rescues as people became trapped in vehicles and homes.
Roads were closed across several counties as floodwaters covered highways and local streets. The National Weather Service had issued flash flood warnings for the area before the worst of the weather hit.
Response and aftermath
Local authorities confirmed the two fatalities, though further details about the victims were not immediately released. Cleanup efforts were under way as the water began to recede, with crews assessing damage to property and infrastructure.
Officials urged residents to avoid travel in affected areas and to heed any remaining warnings as the region recovered from the storm.
