Rescuers found the body of the last victim Friday morning in a rice paddy 15 kilometers away from the accident spot, local officials said. The other three were found in the wee hours.

 

The four kids, all students of a village school in the city of Yushu, were on their way home from school when they were swallowed by flood at around 4:00 p.m., witnesses said.
