Powerful floods sweep across northern Italy - where at least five people have been killed and several others are missing. A regional disaster has been declared in Liguria, as tonnes of muddy water gush through small villages. This amateur video shows a violent torrent rushing through the centre of Monterosso - a popular tourist town in the northeast of the country. Emergency crews have been struggling to clear debris from roadways after mudslides blocked them - while drivers found many spots impassable. Some 300 people were also said to have been rescued from their homes in nearby Tuscany. Travis Brecher, Reuters
