News Networks Are in Central Texas to Cover Tragic Flooding

The flash floods that have devastated central Texas have led to 90 deaths as of Monday morning, with the number expected to keep growing.

The loss of life includes 27 children and counselors from an all-girls summer camp, Camp Mystic, located in Kerr County, Texas. USA Today reports that 700 children were in attendance when the nearby Guadalupe River rose to 26 feet in less than an hour on Friday, July 4th, following a period of continuous heavy rain.

“We will remain 100% dedicated, searching for every single one of the children who were at Camp Mystic as well as anybody else in the riverbed,” said Texas Gov. Greg Abbot. “We are working as swiftly as possible.”

Following the tragedy, news networks have sent teams to the region to offer extensive coverage:
