Man swims through floodwater for 3 hrs on tyre to check on parents in China

A man in China swam for one hour on a truck tyre through floodwaters to check on his parents after losing contact with them during heavy floods. Fearing his 63-year-old father had been swept away, Xie found him trapped upstairs in the house and guided him to safety. He then spent another two hours swimming back to the city.
