Oklahoma Task Force One Sent to Texas to Help with Water Rescue

CENTRAL TEXAS, JUL 7 – Rescue teams from Arkansas and Oklahoma provide swift water rescues and supplies after floods killed at least 89 people, including 27 children at Camp Mystic, officials said.

  • Within days, Oklahoma and Arkansas deployed rescue teams and supplies to aid Texas flood victims, including Oklahoma's two Type III swift water rescue teams.
  • Following three days of over 20 inches of rain, Central Texas floods led to extensive damage, prompting aid requests via the Emergency Management Assistance Compact, with teams preparing for ongoing deployment.
  • AP reports at least 89 deaths, including 27 missing at Camp Mystic, with Oklahoma's two swift water rescue teams arriving with boats and gear.
  • In response in Kerr County, Ingram Elementary was repurposed as a reunification center and supply depot to support ongoing community needs, according to interim superintendent Mindy Curran.
  • Moving forward, Oklahoma and Arkansas teams will deploy periodically for weeks to meet ongoing flood recovery needs, as aid efforts remain essential beyond initial donations.
