PACIFIC (First Alert 4) -- A road in Pacific, Missouri, flooded Tuesday afternoon and left hundreds of workers stranded at a manufacturing plant.
Pacific Fire Chief David Phipps said Integram Drive is covered with multiple feet of water for a stretch of about 700 feet along the roadway. It is the only route to and from a manufacturing plant on the road, which sits off of West Osage Street.
Video shows water pouring onto the roadway around 3 p.m. Tuesday.
Phipps said a culvert collapsed from all the rainfall, causing the major flooding on the roadway. A First Alert 4 crew is at the scene and working to gather more information.
