WENZHOU: Two people died and four were injured in a storm-induced landslide late Monday in China's typhoon-swept eastern Zhejiang Province, fire-fighters said Tuesday.

The landslide occurred at around 10:21 pm in Pengxi township, Taishun county, after five straight days of continuous rain brought by typhoon Morakot.
