Chinese road collapses when floods take a truck

This is the terrifying moment when a Chinese highway collapsed when a parked truck immediately swallowed through devastating flooding.

No casualties have been reported following today’s incident in Sichuan Province, southwest China, Chinese media said.

Images show the street along a bank torn apart in part when the giant vehicle is dumped and dragged through the floods unleashed Wednesday in Sichuan, China.

It occurs after torrential rains hit Ya’an city in Sichuan province since Monday, leaving at least six others dead and five others missing, according to local authorities.

Police-broadcast video captures the terrifying moment on the road with several parked cars collapsing as spectators cried in shock.

A red truck falls into the river grown under the street before being swallowed by water and flying “like a paper boat,” Pear Video says.

There were no passengers in the truck at the time of the incident, a police officer told the Chinese media.
