Two young boys have been rescued after being trapped in flash floods.

Mumbere Reagan, 12, and Mugume Devis, eight, were making their way to a local river to do some fishing when they were suddenly cut off by fast flowing water.

The boys became stuck on a rock where a local spotted them struggling and called for help.
