A man and two children were killed in a record-breaking flash flood that swept through a village in New Mexico on Tuesday, local officials said.

Flash flooding from torrential rain hit Ruidoso, New Mexico, on Tuesday, killing at least three people and prompting dozens of rescues, officials said. A house was seen being carried downstream by the fast-moving water a year after the same area was devastated by two wildfires.

Ruidoso's surge follows deadly flooding in Texas, where authorities reported more than 160 people missing in the aftermath of catastrophic storms.
