A landslide of stone and mud from a hill left dozens of houses buried in an Andean town in northern Peru on Tuesday and authorities fear that dozens of people are trapped and missing.

“The hill slide has covered, according to the preliminary report, approximately 60 to 80 houses. They have been completely covered,” the governor of the northern region of La Libertad, Manuel Llempén, told RPP radio.
