Search and recovery efforts continue in Kerr County, 12 days after the tragic flood that claimed more than 130 lives along the Guadalupe.
KERRVILLE, Texas – The Lone Star State continues to grapple with a heartbreaking series of events. Just over a week after the initial catastrophic and deadly deluges, heavy rains and devastating flash floods have returned, pounding Texas once more.
About four miles downriver from Acevedo's team in Kerrville, Roberto Marquez was found working on a memorial. "I've made 148. But I believe we need to make another 18," Marquez said. The artist is handmaking crosses to honor those lost across Texas.
A large percentage of people still unaccounted for were probably visiting the area, Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly said.
Another potentially life-threatening flooding event took place across Central Texas on Sunday morning, with torrential rain sending rivers and streams above their banks, forcing officials to stop search efforts along the Guadalupe River that had been underway since a catastrophic and deadly flash flooding event over the Fourth of July holiday.
With 101 people still missing after the July 4 flash flood, the focus turns to local lakes, and what may be buried in them.
