The 44-year-old was a passenger in a sedan, which was swept into a creek due to moving floodwaters.

The 52-year-old male driver was able to escape.

“We have been speaking with a resident,” Nine News reporter Jess Millward told Spencer Howson. “This creek backs on to some homes here in Aspley.

“They say it was one of the residents who called triple-zero, because they could hear a woman screaming.”
