People look of a landslide in the village of Molino near the Sicilian town of Messina October 2, 2009. At least 20 people were killed and 40 injured in rainstorms in Sicily early on Friday which washed away roads and destroyed homes around Messina, where rescue workers dug through the mud to find survivors. Some people took refuge on roofs and were plucked to safety by helicopter. One man died, trapped in his car when it was hit by a torrent of water and mud, while another man survived after climbing out of his submerged vehicle. REUTERS/Antonio Parrinello.
