A Scotsman living in Florida has told of the horror he and his family faced during Hurricane Ian as "deadly animals" swam through residential streets.
Fearing for their lives, Thomas Smart, 49, along with wife Abby and her two children had to flee the storm, which is believed to have caused significant loss of life, creating severe damage in the state.
Along with flooding and high winds, the couple were horrified to see alligators in driveways and sharks swimming in water in the streets of their Cape Coral neighbourhood.
