We immediately searched for a basin to help them out."<br /><br />The kind neighbours called the local officers to bring a boat for rescue and while waiting they helped each other save the trapped family.<br /><br />They found a discarded bathtub and tied a rope in one end so they can pull the father and his baby to higher ground.<br /><br />A brave man volunteered to swim in the flood and take the basin to the end of the street where the family was.<br /><br />The baby and his father were rescued after almost half an hour before local officials came to the area and evacuate the residents.<br /><br />The affected families were taken to a nearby school building to stay for the night until the flood recedes and the weather condition gets better.
