NEWMAN, Calif. (AP) - The swollen San Joaquin River overflowed its banks Friday, flooding a trailer park and forcing the evacuation of about 50 residents.
The Fisherman's Bend trailer park, about 20 miles west of Merced, was filled with about a foot of water that was continuing to rise, said David Jones, spokesman for the Stanislaus County Office of Emergency Services.
Residents living in another trailer park nearby were told to prepare for a possible evacuation.
