Death Toll From Flooding In Texas Surpasses 100 As Search Continues
1 week ago
Flash floods in Texas have killed more than 100 people, many of them children. Heavy rains fell quickly in the predawn hours Friday in the Texas Hill Country. That caused the Guadalupe River to rise 26 feet in just 45 minutes. The number of deaths reached at least 104 on Monday as a massive search continued for missing people. Among the missing are 10 girls and a counselor from a Christian summer camp. The July Fourth holiday weekend likely brought an influx of visitors to the area outside San Antonio, making it difficult to track everyone who may have been in the area.
