TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — Typhoon Danas brought heavy winds and torrential rains to parts of Taiwan early Monday, killing two people and injuring more than 300 on the island’s densely populated west coast. The typhoon lost intensity and was downgraded to a tropical storm as it moved into the Taiwan Strait on a forecast path to China. Danas knocked out power for more than 580,000 households, and schools and offices were closed across southern and central parts of Taiwan.
