At Least 43 Killed In Texas Flash Floods, Children Missing From Summer Camp

At least 43 people have died and dozens of children are missing in the Texas Hill Country after catastrophic flooding, with officials warning the casualty count will climb as forecasts call for more rain and the risk of further flash floods in the coming days. Among those unaccounted for were at least 27 campers from Camp Mystic, an all-girls summer camp along the Guadalupe River in Kerr County, officials said at a briefing, adding that they are maintaining that number even as more bodies were discovered. Of the dead, 28 were adults and 15 were children. Storms on Saturday on the northwest fringes of the Austin metro area left at least two people dead in Travis County, with another 10 people missing.
