Footage shows the moment a house is swept away following flash flooding in New Mexico. The floods were triggered by heavy monsoon rains in the southern US state, trapping dozens of people in homes and vehicles in and around the mountain resort village of Ruidoso. The National Weather Service said a section of the Rio Ruidoso river had reached a crest of 6.16 metres provisionally, and would be a record high if confirmed. | RTÉ News
