Dramatic rescue as heat wave hits US south-east

In Kansas City, a passer-by smashed a window to release a two-year-old girl left in a car despite soaring temperatures.

 

Soaring temperatures have caused problems across the south-east United States.

 

Roads have buckled and some power lines have caught fire. The national weather service has issued heat warnings, to remain in place until Wednesday evening.
