Asda van submerged in rising flood water in Shropshire

An Asda van has been stuck in flood water north of Cleobury Mortimer.

In a Facebook post, Cleobury Mortimer Fire Station said the van had moved from the ford at Neen Savage and became stuck at Walfords Bridge.

No-one was trapped and information was passed on to West Mercia Police and the Environment Agency, the station added.

Heavy rain has sparked flooding fears over the past few days with almost 80 flood warnings, mostly scattered across the south and south-west England and the East and West Midlands, being issued by the Environment Agency.
