At least 13 dead as nearly 2 dozen girls at Christian summer camp missing after ‘catastrophic’ Texas floods

Nearly two dozen girls at a Christian summer camp are missing — and potentially dead — after their cabins were apparently washed away by “catastrophic” and fatal flooding in Texas that has left at least 13 people dead, officials announced Friday.

Around 20 children are unaccounted for at Camp Mystic alongside the Guadalupe River in Hunt, a suburb of San Antonio in Kerr County, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said at a news conference.

“That does not mean they’ve been lost. They could be in a tree. They could be out of communication. We’re praying for all those missing to be found alive,” Patrick said.
