LONDON: Three people died on Thursday after their car fell into a river in northern England, local police said, as Storm Gerrit battered much of the UK.
Emergency services headed to the River Esk near the town of Glaisdale shortly before midday (1200 GMT), after reports that a vehicle had fallen into the river.
“The vehicle was recovered from the river by the fire service just after 3:00 pm. Sadly, the three men inside have died,” North Yorkshire Police said.
Another man who had tried to help them was recovered unharmed, it said, adding that the weather conditions were “making driving hazardous”.
