A house, occupied by a local family for more than 50 years, collapsed into the Blue Earth River near a flooded dam in Minnesota on Tuesday. Concerns have risen over the condition of the 114-year-old Rapidan Dam as heavy rain, erosion, and severe flooding continue to affect southern Minnesota.
Captain Paul Barta of the Blue Earth County Sheriff's Office explained that debris lodged in the dam led to water flow restrictions.
"Dam has been on free flow for the last few years. With that obstruction, the water needed to find somewhere to go and ultimately created a new path on the west side of the dam and kind of undermined that side of the structure," he said.
Community members gathered along the river bank to view the scene of the house toppling into the river.
