Texas flooding: Death toll surpasses 100 as search for the missing continues, officials updates
The death toll from the catastrophic floods in Texas continued to rise on Tuesday as the desperate search for survivors entered its fifth day. Officials say at least 109 people have died across six counties, including at least 87 in Kerr County. More than a dozen people remain missing, including five campers and one counselor at Camp Mystic, an all-girls camp located in Kerr County along the Guadalupe River, which rose more than 20 feet in less than two hours on July 4. Hundreds of first responders and volunteers have been scouring the river and layers of debris along its banks. Rescue crews from neighboring states and Mexico have joined the massive search effort.
