Families occupying over a dozen homes at Linden, in Region Ten, are now in jeopardy as the foundations of their homes have been severely eroded following torrential rains between Friday and Sunday at Linden, in Region Ten.
Should there be any more heavy rainfall, it is feared that the houses may easily slip away and residents could be harmed. A source, who asked not to be named, told this newspaper that some 13 homes have been affected by the erosion.
In a Facebook post, the Director General of the Civil Defence Commission (CDC), Lieutenant Colonel Kester Craig, noted that following the heavy rains the soak-away (a structure to drain water) at Blueberry Hill was washed away and five homes had been directly and severely impacted.
