Officials in Argentina say heavy rains that flooded a city on the country's east coast have killed at least 16 people. Rescue teams on Sunday searched for dozens reported missing. That includes two girls and two adults that authorities said were swept away by floodwaters unleashed by rains that began pelting the city of Bahía Blanca on Friday. Crews have evacuated more than 1,450 people from the city located south of the capital of Buenos Aires. Those evacuated include patients from a local hospital. Some 12 inches of rain have fallen in Bahía Blanca in recent days, when the historical monthly average is about 5 inches.
