Officials in hard-hit Kerr County, Texas, which was ravaged by flooding earlier this month, say the number of people believed to be missing has dropped from nearly 100 to three.
In a statement Saturday, county officials cited “extensive follow-up work among state and local agencies” that determined that many people initially reported as missing were verified to be alive and safe.
Overall, the death toll from the July 4 flooding across the state of Texas stood at more than 130 as of earlier this week.
Of those, 107 were in Kerr County — including 70 adults and 37 children.
