A man drowned and there are reports of missing people as storms batter Crete, Greece's biggest island, causing rivers to overflow and flooding locations across the island on Saturday.

The worst damage seemed to have occurred in the seaside town of AgiaPelagia, about 25 kilometers northwest of Iraklio, Crete’s largest city. Authorities said they were investigating more reports of missing people and fear others may have been trapped in their cars.
