A major monsoon storm rocked the Tucson community late Thursday, July 25, leading to power outages, utility poles down and swift-water rescues.

The Tucson Fire Department said it responded to 11 rescue calls starting at 7:45 p.m. The TFD said most were just stranded vehicles, but they did have three swift-water rescues at:

Fontana Avenue and Bilby Road
Tucson Boulevard and East Kleindale
16th Avenue and District
