At least 24 dead in Texas flash flooding, sheriff says
At least 24 fatalities have been confirmed as a result of flash floods along the Guadalupe River in Texas, Kerr County, Sheriff Larry Leitha said on July 4, 2025. In a news conference along with Texas Governor Greg Abbott and other officials, Leitha also confirmed that one fatality has been found in Kendall County, but could not confirm whether it was related to the flash floods. Torrential rains unleashed deadly flash floods along the Guadalupe River in south-central Texas, killing 24 people and leaving nearly two-dozen girls reported missing from a riverfront summer camp, local authorities said.

00:00I want to tell you all that we will be working around the clock, 24-7, until every person is found.
00:07What I can confirm at this point, we're at about 24 fatalities.
00:11We're not going to be giving any names out at this time. We're still notifying next to Ken.
00:15Also, I've been notified one fatality has been found in Kendall County.
00:20I cannot say it's related to this incident at this time, but we'll let you all know when we find out more information.
00:26We've been over 100 troopers this morning, and they've worked all day, rescues, high-water vehicles, boats, rescue drivers, divers, seven rescue helicopters with hoist capabilities, and that was just today.
00:40We have another shift coming in tonight and another shift in the morning. We'll really ramp it up in the morning, but we will not stop.
00:47We want to make sure we get information to families as quickly as we possibly can.
00:53But most importantly, we will stop at nothing of rescuing every last person and ensure everybody involved in this is going to be fully accounted for.
