Two still missing in swept away car
One man died and another man and teenage girl are missing after their car was swept away while crossing a swollen stream during flash floods.
A fourth man, aged 20, escaped the Volvo saloon - an off-duty taxi - as it filled with flood water and reported the three others missing.
A man aged 26 and a 17-year-old girl remain unaccounted for but rescuers promised to "pull out all the stops" to find them before darkness halts the search.
The car got into difficulties in the early hours of Saturday while trying to make the crossing in the village of Zennor, near St Ives in west Cornwall.
The body of a man aged 20 was recovered just after 7am downstream from where the Volvo S70 was found "fully submerged and full of water", Devon and Cornwall police said.
All those involved were local and had been out together.
Divers, firefighters, the coastguard and rescue helicopters combed the rugged stretch of coast, 14 miles from Land's End for the missing people.
The man freed himself from the car before it was sucked out into the water on the B3306 between St Ives and St Just.
He called ambulance control at 1.41am saying that three others were lost.
The tragedy happened as flooding was reported in several parts of St Ives, due to the heavy rainfall.
