Prisoners at Ayutthaya prison wade in line in a chest-deep flood water to board a bus during an evacuation after flood water hit Ayutthaya province, central Thailand Thursday, Oct. 6, 2011.
Nearly 5,000 prisoners in this province were evacuated to the prisons in nearby provinces of Nonthaburi and Lopburi. Flooding in Ayutthaya, the old Thai capital, could threaten ancient Buddhist temples and have alerted residents there to be ready to evacuate as a tropical storm approaches the region.
