MADRID, Oct 26 (Reuters) - A storm washed away part of a wall designed to keep out illegal immigrants crossing into Spain's North African enclave of Melilla on Sunday and heavy rains flooded many of the city's streets. Civil guard police reinforced the border near the 30-metre (yard) stretch of damaged wall, which was built to stem a flow of Africans trying to get into Spain in search of work, the Spanish government's office in the city said. Air and sea traffic to the city stopped during the storm. The River Oro burst its banks and television showed trees washed along flooded streets. Weather services forecast heavy rain to continue lashing Melilla, which is one of two small Spanish enclaves in North Africa, both of which are claimed by Morocco.
