More than 100 houses damaged in Baco, Oriental Mindoro due to Nona

Typhoon Nona caused flooding with mud in Baco, Oriental Mindoro, damaging ricefields, houses and businesses, a report on Unang Balita said.

Flood water levels were taller than a man's average height, the report by Ian Cruz said.

A landslide was also seen at Mt. Halcon, and one barangay seemed to have been wiped out.

Mud, soil, and boulders from the mountain tumbled down Brgy. Bayanan through the two rivers encircling it.

The church and the barangay hall were half-buried in a pile of stones.

Some houses only had roofs peeking out from boulders.

About 100 houses were buried in sand and boulders from the mountain, the report said.

No casualties were reported so far. —KG, GMA News
