The death toll from mudslides that cut off the highway to Colombia's main Pacific port rose to 15 on Saturday, with as many as 37 people still missing and 1,000 left homeless.
Landslides seem to be quite the issue in the northern part of South America. When I visited Venezuela a couple of years ago, the road connecting Caracas to the airport was completely shut down because of a landslide that killed many -- and received no press in the U.S.
It's good to hear that these landslides are finally being covered.
