Many people are deceased in Central Texas, what law enforcement is calling a “mass casualty event” when dangerous flash floods hit Hill Country, with water rescuing happening by the Guadalupe River (Texas). 27 other girls are remaining lost. 18 adults are also dead. The floods happened in the morning hours on Independence Day (United States) when the Guadalupe River heightened to 26-29 feet in just 45-90 minutes.
The flooding affected Camp Mystic, a (For Girls) only, Christian summer camp in Hunt, Texas, as 27 campers are still missing among 750 children who were going to the camp. US President Donald Trump told officials of the state of Texas that “whatever we need, we will have” and federal help was there to support the flooding support.
