Taiwan: Typhoon Champi leaves 1 dead, over 500 injured

Typhoon Champi killed at least one person and left more than 500 people with injuries as it passed through Taiwan on Saturday. Taiwan's fire department said the death toll remained at 1, after a man was swept ​away by waves from the island of Liuqiu. At least 527 others were injured during the heavy wind and torrential rain. Several parts in Taiwan received heavy rain and strong winds that prompted authorities to cut off power, leaving thousands of people without power supply. Some 280,000 households were knocked out of power, according to United Daily News, a local Taiwanese newspaper. By Saturday morning, the power supply was restored to 80% of the households.
