TOKYO -- Days after the deadly mudslide in the coastal Japanese city of Atami, the heaps of debris and soil washed out to sea are proving a major obstacle in the hunt for the missing.
"Be careful -- there's a nail sticking out," says a voice in a video of a Japan Coast Guard member swimming through the debris-filled waters of Izusan Port in a clip tweeted out by the service. The coast guard has dispatched vessels and helicopters to the area for the search effort.
