Long Lines for Water After Hurricane Otis Pummels Acapulco| VOA News
Residents are forced to wait in long lines for water, after Hurricane Otis pummeled the beach resort town of Acapulco, Mexico last week.
👉 At least 48 people died when Category 5 Hurricane Otis slammed into Mexico's southern Pacific Coast, most of them in Acapulco, Mexican authorities said Sunday as the death toll continued to climb and families buried loved ones.
Mexico's civil defense agency said in a statement that 43 of the dead were in the resort city of Acapulco and five in nearby Coyuca de Benitez. Guerrero state's governor had earlier raised the number of missing to 36 from 10 a day earlier. The death toll increased after authorities had raised it to 39 on Saturday.
In Acapulco, families held funerals on Sunday and continued the search for essentials while government workers and volunteers cleared streets clogged with muck and debris from the powerful storm.
Kathy Barrera, 30, said Sunday that her aunt's family was buried in a landslide when tons of mud and rock tumbled down onto their home. Her aunt's body was found with the remains of their three children ranging in age from 2 to 21. Her uncle was still missing. Separately, Barrera's mother and brother are missing.
