Texas flash flood death toll hits 80
Search teams are using helicopters, boats and drones to look for victims in flash floods that have torn across central Texas since the start of the July Fourth weekend.
At least 80 people have died and many more are missing, including at least 10 girls from a summer camp.
Flash floods struck with force and ripped away concrete slabs and giant trees along the Guadalupe River’s banks dotted with children’s camps and campgrounds.
Kerr County authorities had confirmed at least 68 deaths as of Sunday and said they had no way to total the number of missing across the county, the hardest-hit by the floods.
Among Kerr County’s confirmed dead are at least 28 children.
The missing campers were from Camp Mystic, a riverside Christian camp for girls in Hunt, Texas.
