Rescuers continue hunt for mudslide survivors

Rescuers dug through rock and debris today in hope of finding dozens of people missing in a mudslide, part of a wave of floods that killed at least 124 people in El Salvador.

Days of heavy rains loosened mud and boulders that rolled down the slopes of the Chichontepec volcano before dawn yesterday, burying homes and cars in Verapaz, a town of about 3,000 people 30 miles outside the capital, San Salvador.
