Heavy rains in Tuscany have caused disruptions to local businesses, with workers trapped inside La Meridiana tannery as rising waters prevented them from leaving.

The flooding has affected “many tanneries” around the San Miniato and Santa Croce area, according to local press, which described the situation as “chaos”.

Businesses and homes were left without electricity, with bars and shops also closing.
