Hurricane Otis: Photos show devastation in Acapulco after Category 5 storm leaves 47 dead

Hurricane Otis slammed into Acapulco, Mexico last Wednesday, a surprise Category 5 hurricane with 165 mph winds coming from the Pacific Ocean that left a trail of intense devastation in its wake.

Power lines were downed and hotels, homes, streets, restaurants and bridges in Acapulco, a resort city along the Pacific coast, were left mostly underwater. The heavy flooding also triggered landslides in Acapulco and left parts of the state of Guerrero without power or cellphone service.

At least 47 people died and dozens were missing after the storm, while Navy search efforts focused on the 29 boats that sunk in Acapulco Bay, the Associated Press reported.

Acapulco is a resort city and major seaport in Guerrero on the Pacific Coast of Mexico, about 240 miles south of Mexico City. Nearly 1 million people live in the city and hundreds of thousands of tourists visit each year.
