KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia—About 30 members of a film crew who were trapped in a limestone cave in northern Malaysia during heavy rain Wednesday have been rescued, police said.
Perak police chief Mohamad Yusri Hassan Basri was quoted by the Utusan Malaysia newspaper as saying that the people were trapped when water level near the cave’s exit rose to about 1.5 meters (5 feet) due to heavy rains.
