CENTRAL TEXAS, JUL 6 – Nearly 70 people died in central Texas floods caused by sudden heavy rains, including 21 children and camp staff, with at least 11 children still missing, officials said.
- Catastrophic flooding on July 4, 2025, from the fast-moving Guadalupe River in central Texas killed at least 82 people across six counties.
- The flooding followed heavy rains that swamped Camp Mystic, where 10 campers, one counselor, and camp director Dick Eastland died or remain missing.
- Among the victims were Sarah Marsh, an 8-year-old Alabama student, Tanya Burwick, a 62-year-old woman found near her submerged vehicle, and Janie Hunt, a nine-year-old cousin of a sports team owner.
- Authorities reported 68 deaths in Kerr County, six in Travis County, and over 12,000 buildings damaged in San Angelo, while public figures expressed condolences and prayers for victims and responders.
- The event prompted ongoing search and rescue efforts, suspension and resumption of operations due to safety, community mourning, and a $500,000 donation for flood relief by the Hunt family.
