Texas flood deaths have risen to 120

Authorities have confirmed at least 120 deaths across six counties, including those of 60 adults and 36 children in Kerr County.
There are still 173 people missing, and the chances of finding survivors are getting smaller. Rescue crews are battling challenging conditions and high temperatures as they search through the devastation, especially along the Guadalupe River.
Questions are mounting over whether local, state and federal officials could’ve done more to warn residents about the floods. Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha said his office is “in the process” of assembling a timeline of the actions that local officials took ahead of the disaster.
Twenty-seven girls and staff members from Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian summer camp on the bank of the Guadalupe River, are among the dead. There were still five campers and one 19-year-old counselor missing.
Just two days before the flood, the camp passed its annual state safety inspection and had a written disaster plan in place.
