Video. Flooding in Montenegro sweeps cars away after heavy rains

Updated:

Heavy rains in Montenegro caused the Grđevice river in Budva to overflow, sweeping away cars parked in its dry riverbed and prompting warnings from local authorities.

Heavy rainfall in Montenegro triggered flooding in the coastal town of Budva, where the Grđevice river overflowed and swept away several cars left in its dry riverbed.

The riverbed is often used as improvised parking during the summer due to limited parking in the city.

Local officials said residents had been warned about dangerous weather conditions and called the incident a result of irresponsible parking.

Emergency crews worked to remove vehicles to prevent further blockages as water levels continued to rise.
