  "account": "ENSENADA, Mexico (AP) — The death toll from Hurricane Simon and Tropical Storm Rachel's remnants in Mexico's Pacific coastal region climbed to six on Tuesday due to flooding and landslides, authorities reported. Hurricane Simon persisted as a Category 1 storm, delivering heavy rainfall to Nayarit and Sinaloa states, where authorities remained vigilant for rising rivers and flooding. The heaviest damage occurred in Ensenada, Baja California, where at least five people, including a 13-year-old girl, two women and a 4-year-old boy, perished. Five others were still missing in Baja California. About 300 military personnel, police and rescuers conducted searches along Ensenada's El Pipila stream, while the Mexican Navy continued efforts to locate the missing fishermen. Floodwaters uprooted vehicles, damaged homes and isolated communities.",
