2 dead, hundreds rescued amid severe flooding in Florida

Two people were killed -- one of whom died in a vehicle -- and hundreds of others were rescued since Sunday as a storm brought severe flooding in Palm Bay, Florida, according to Palm Bay Mayor Rob Medina.
Emergency crews rescued hundreds of people from flooded areas using boats and special high-water vehicles, Medina said in a press conference Tuesday.
Some homes suffered major damage. One family reported that 38 inches of water had filled their living room, Medina told reporters.
