Mudslide kills 11 in China as heavy rains from tropical storm Gaemi drench region

BEIJING — Eleven people were killed after a mudslide hit a house in southeastern China on Sunday as heavy rains from what remained of a tropical storm drenched the region, state media said. Elsewhere in China, a delivery person on a scooter was killed Saturday after being hit by a falling tree in Shanghai, apparently because of storm-related winds, according to The Paper, a digital news outlet. The deaths were the first in China that appear linked to Typhoon Gaemi, which weakened to a tropical storm after making landfall on Thursday.
