At least eight people died in Mexico on Monday after heavy rain turned a mountain stream into a torrent of muddy floodwater that swept away villagers.

According to reports, some victims' bodies were discovered many miles downstream from where they vanished, close to Autlan in the western state of Jalisco.

The Jalisco civil protection service released a statement Monday evening saying that "eight people have been reported dead so far, and search efforts are ongoing to locate two more people."

Dozens of rescue workers were working in the area to search for the missing. 

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
