TAIPEI -- Three people have died and 311 others were injured in Taiwan as Typhoon Nepartak made landfall in the island's southeast early Friday.

The three fatalities were a 39-year-old man who fell into a lake and was drowned in Hualien county, a 71-year-old woman who died from severe injuries after being hit by a falling wardrobe in Taitung, and a man who fell into the sea in Lienchang county, said the island's disaster emergency operation center.

The typhoon caused power outages for more than half a million households. Power has not been resumed for nearly 20,000 households, it added.

The typhoon caused losses of more than 700 million new Taiwan dollars ($21.8 million) in the agricultural sector in the island.
