News Wrap: Central American search teams find more hurricane dead

In our news wrap Thursday, Hurricane Iota’s death toll has passed 40 across Central America. Search teams continue to find bodies in landslides triggered by flooding. Entire communities in Honduras and Nicaragua were overwhelmed, with thousands left homeless. Also, a badly damaged giant space telescope in Puerto Rico is shutting down. The iconic Arecibo radio telescope was built in the 1960s.
