Officials say the number of missing people in Texas has dropped from 160 to three after the devastating floods hit the state.
After the downpour of July 4, flooding over the top of the mountain was flooded, including 135 people, including children at the Christian All Girls Summer Camp Mystic along the Guadalupe River.
Dozens of other people have been reportedly missing. But late Saturday, the city of Kerrville, at the heart of the disaster, reported that many people had been proven to be safe.
Kelville City Manager Dalton Rice said, “It took countless hours to coordinate search and rescue operations, careful investigation and a firm commitment to unwaveringly bringing clarity and hope to the family.”
More than 1,000 federal, state and local officials have “relatively” tracked down missing persons, and the search team is now reuniting with their families, the city said in a Facebook post.
“Our ideas remain in touch with families who are still waiting for news and we will continue to stand with them as the efforts continue.”
Earlier this week, officials said the number of missing persons fell from 160 to three in Kerr County and nearby areas due to the help of thousands of rescuers.
Many of the people who were initially reported as missing have been proven safe and have been removed from the list, officials said.
At least 27 campers and staff died at Mystic Camp, and the Guadalupe River was flooded by heavy rains. The river is within 45 minutes of reaching 26 feet (8m), and young children, staff and residents sleep in houses along the river.
After the fatal tragedy, questions were raised about whether adequate warnings were provided and why the camp was not evacuated before the flood.
Experts say many factors have led to the fatal effects of flash floods, including pre-dawn timing, location of certain houses, patchwork of cell services and their overall speed and severity.
Donald Trump visited the wreck last week to express his “love and support” to those affected, refuting questions about whether there were more warnings to residents.
