A British man died after he tried to cross a ford in Hampshire and his car became submerged in flood waters, officials said. The man, whose name was not reported, died Monday and a woman who was in the car managed to get out and call police. When officers arrived at the scene, the man was already dead, The Daily Telegraph reported. Recent heavy rains have inundated the United Kingdom, wreaking havoc across the country. The Environment Agency issued flood warnings for parts of southern and eastern England, the Midlands and Wales. "We are continuing to closely monitor the forecast and rainfall particularly in areas along the rivers Severn, Teme and Avon, including Worcestershire, Shropshire, Herefordshire and Gloucestershire," an EA spokeswoman said. "Environment Agency teams are out on the ground continuing a close watch on river levels as well as checking defenses and clearing any potential blockages to reduce the risk of flooding," she said.
