Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha asked residents to avoid flood-damaged areas and not disturb debris piles that might contain victims, as Texas responders continue rescue operations.

As of the end of the day Tuesday, there were still five Camp Mystic campers and one counselor unaccounted for, with identification pending for 19 adults and seven children. Another child not associated with the camp is also missing.

What were Kerr County Officials doing to prepare for the possible flooding ahead of July Fourth? That's the question on many minds in the wake of the recent tragedy.

The request of a CodeRED was met with a dispatcher informing the first responder, “10-4 stand by, we have to get that approved with our supervisor, please be advised we do have the Texas Water Rescue en route.
