Some brave citizens in from Maryland’s low-lying town of Ellicott City have formed a human chain to save a woman trapped in deadly flood waters.
The footage captured by local resident Sara Ardaitti shows four men pulling a woman to safety from her black sedan as the fast moving waters threatened to wash the vehicle away with the woman inside it.
So far the wild weather has claimed the lives of two people and caused devastating damage to local homes and businesses.
A spokesman for Howard County Executive Allan Kittleman, told AAP that the town received nearly 7 inches of rain, including nearly 6 inches between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.
“This is by far the worst devastation Ellicott City has seen in decades,” Kittleman told WBAL-AM.
