  • Over 100 Girl Scouts and volunteers were rescued on Tuesday after flash flooding stranded them near their cabin in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.
  • Heavy rainfall of over two-and-a-half inches between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. caused an overflowing stream that trapped the group during their day camp retreat.
  • Firefighters and emergency crews deployed a rope and life jackets to safely pull about 105 people across the flooded stream to dry land in roughly ten minutes.
  • Allegheny County police confirmed all scouts and volunteers were accounted for with no injuries, and parents expressed relief and gratitude for the group's safety.
