BEIJING (AP) — The death toll in China's latest round of flooding has risen to at least 57, including two schoolchildren aboard a bus carrying more than twice its authorized passenger load that plunged into a pond, authorities said Saturday. At least 13 other people are missing in floods that have ravaged mountain districts of six provinces and autonomous regions, forcing tens of thousands from their homes and causing major damage to buildings and crops.
