CHENGDU - A landslide that happened on Friday in Southwest China's Sichuan province has left one dead and three others missing, rescuers said on Sunday. 

The landslide blocked a section of Baimu River in Ya'an city. Rising water washed out a small hydropower station in Tianquan county, causing the dead and missing, while incurring power outage and disruption of wireless signals. 

Local authorities on Saturday made an emergent work to open a channel for discharging the flooding water. On Sunday, the risk of the barrier lake has been basically removed.
