Deadly mudslide in Bolivia caught on camera

A new mudslide was captured on video as people attempted to cross on foot an area of the mountains northeast of Bolivia’s capital on Sunday, where a day earlier another mudslide buried vehicles.

Officials said the new mudslide occurred in the same mountain highway near a spot known as El Choro where a mudslide on Saturday buried cars.

The new mudslide was the result of a third day of heavy rains, though there was no immediate word of any casualties.

Also on Sunday, authorities said that searchers had recovered 11 bodies from Saturday’s mudslide. At least 18 other people were reported injured.

Tons of earth and mud collapsed on the mountain highway near a spot known as El Choro on Saturday.

Heavy rains had been falling for two days and the cars were in a line of vehicles making their way along a muddy patch of road when the mountainside gave way.
