They held onto hope that assistance would arrive swiftly in the aftermath of Hurricane Otis. The Pacific storm intensified rapidly before making a destructive landfall on the coast early Wednesday.

The Mexican government mobilized approximately 10,000 troops to address the aftermath, but the arrival of equipment to clear the streets of tons of mud and fallen trees was sluggish, the Associated Press reported.
