A wake in Barangay 10, Laoag City was interrupted by rising floodwaters, forcing the evacuation of the body of the deceased to a safer location.
Six people had to carry the body of an elderly woman from the flooded home, where mourners had gathered.
Heavy rains caused knee-deep floods to seep into the house, prompting the urgent move.
Despite the downpour, the group managed to move the casket to a safer place and avoid further damage from the flood.
