KENT, CT (WHDH) — Heavy rain and ice damns led to evacuations for people in one Connecticut town.

Kent fire officials said the water rose Saturday morning, leaving cars underwater and houses partially submerged.

A rescue boat had to help evacuate six people in one neighborhood and bring them to a local senior center.

Firefighters said no one was hurt and crews are monitoring the flow of ice dams.
