Rescuers search for missing girls at Camp Mystic on Saturday following the deadly floods in South Texas.
Following torrential rains on Friday, the level of the nearby Guadalupe River
rose by eight meters within 45 minutes. The waters flooded the camp grounds, which were then evacuated. However, 20 girls are still missing. Meanwhile, the death toll in the region has risen to 27, including nine children.
Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha announced this on Saturday morning (local time). The search continues.
