Officers were called late this afternoon to help bring people to safety who were experiencing flash floods in Camden and on Main Street in College Corner, Ohio. A portion of state Route 725 was impassable with more than one foot of water over the roadway in Camden, according to the National Weather Service in Wilmington.
