HOUSTON, July 4 (Xinhua) — At least six people have died and an unspecified number of children from summer camps along the Guadalupe River are missing due to flooding in central Texas, local authorities said Friday.
The massive flash flood that occurred overnight was caused by heavy rains.
Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly confirmed the number of victims but did not disclose their identities.
“We can’t say for sure that all the missing people have been found. We know that some people are missing,” R. Kelly said during a briefing on Friday morning.
There are several summer camps along the river in the area, including Camp Mystic for Girls, NBC News reported.
The camp released a statement Friday morning saying the parents of the missing children had been notified and if a parent had not been contacted, it meant their child was not reported missing. -0-
