Three people have been killed across California after a record-breaking Christmas storm unleashed deadly flooding. In San Diego, a 64-year-old man was killed on Christmas Eve morning when a massive tree collapsed onto him in the City Heights neighborhood amid high winds and heavy rain. Earlier in the week, a person died in rising floodwaters in Redding on Sunday after water overwhelmed parts of the city. Police officers attempted to rescue the individual, who was trapped inside a vehicle as the water rose, but were unable to reach them in time, city officials said. On Monday, a woman in her 70s was killed along the Northern California coast when a powerful wave knocked her off rocks at MacKerricher State Park, according to the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass declared a state of emergency on Wednesday as flash flood warnings and evacuation orders spread across the region. #news #weather #flood #mudslide #california
