BEIJING (AP) - Emergency workers found 50 bodies and were searching for dozens of people missing after Typhoon Longwang slammed into southeastern China and unleashed raging floods, state media reported Tuesday.
Among the missing were 59 members of a paramilitary police brigade swept away in Fujian province Sunday night after the typhoon came ashore with 74 mph winds, state media said.
The missing paramilitary officers, members of China's armed force in charge of domestic security, were in a training school barracks when they were washed away, state media said.
