Flooding in Camden stranded cars and forced rescues as more heavy rain moved through the tri-state area. Crews conducted at least three water rescues as waters rose in Camden.

“When you see broken down cars you think, ‘Aw man, I wish I had my truck to pull them out,'” one resident told CBS3.

As roads turned into rivers, some drivers made the risky decision to plow through. Others took the path of least resistance and stepped right in.
