A neighbourhood was submerged in floods after heavy rains hit northwestern Mexico over the weekend.

Footage shows the brown deluge entering homes in the city of Empalme in Sonora state on August 22. Officers rode on boats to survey the damage caused by the flood.

The State Civil Protection Coordination (CEPC) of Sonora said a bridge had collapsed, cutting Empalme off from neighbouring Guaymas City.

The local government said it has ordered rescuers to evacuate some 600 people in heavily flooded areas as rain and thunderstorms are still expected.

Local media said no fatalities have been reported so far.
