The Latest: Most California Flood Victims Allowed Home

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — The Latest on the storms in California (all times local): 8:55 a.m. San Jose city officials say more than 10,000 of the 14,000 residents evacuated two days ago because of floods are being allowed to go home. About 3,800 people remain under the mandatory evacuation order prompted by a creek that overflowed following heavy rains and inundated neighborhoods with waist high water. City spokesman David Vossbrook says the city is now focused on cleanup efforts and getting people back into their homes. Residents returned home Thursday to sort through waterlogged furniture, toys and clothing after the creek water carrying engine fuel and sewage swamped their homes. ____ 7:05 a.m. WeatherDB | Graphiq California authorities are expected to head to flooded ranches in San Jose to rescue 28 horses that have been standing in water for two days. KNTV reports (http://bit.ly/2l3wvfi ) the horses have been trapped since Tuesday, when flooding prompted the evacuation of 14,000 San Jose residents. Police and animal control crews have been waiting for flood waters to recede before going in to get the horses. Some horse owners asked for animal control officers to airlift the horses out with helicopters.
