Torrential rains that turned avenues into rivers killed at least 11 people in Rio de Janeiro, AFP reported on Sunday, citing the fire department.
The rainstorm hit northern parts of Rio particularly hard, where people died in a landslide, drownings, and electrocutions.
Mayor Eduardo Paes decreed the situation an "emergency" and urged people to stay home for their own safety, and so as not to disrupt rescue and recovery efforts.
