<p>PETALING JAYA: A section of a water retention pond near Taman Seri Alam in Sungai Buloh collapsed early this morning, flooding parts of the residential area and affecting 35 homes.</p>
<p>Selangor fire and rescue department director Wan Razali Wan Ismail said the embankment breach was believed to have occurred at around 5.30am after overnight rain.</p>
<p>He said personnel from the Bestari Jaya fire station were immediately dispatched after receiving an emergency call at 7.26am.</p>
<p>&#8220;Preliminary checks revealed that 35 houses had been inundated in the back, with water levels at an estimated 0.2 feet.</p>

<p>&#8220;There was no need for evacuation as the water levels began to drop quickly,&#8221; he said in a statement today.</p>
<p>The incident followed a similar event last December, when a section of the same retention pond collapsed and caused flooding in the residential area.</p>
<p>Several videos which went viral on social media captured the extent of the flood, showing submerged streets and water levels rising to the height of vehicle tyres.</p>
<p>Many residents scrambled to move their cars to higher ground in an attempt to protect them from the rising floodwaters.</p>
