Dozens remain missing, including 10 kids and one counselor from Camp Mystic.
The all-girls Christian summer camp confirmed Monday that it was “grieving the loss” of 27 campers and counselors.
Greg Froelick and Brooks Holzhausen, part of “300 Justice Road,” helped with recovery efforts at the century-old camp.
“When we got out here Saturday, we cleared a lot where we were,” Froelick told . “But, you’re talking cars wrapped around trees split in half, debris piled up 20 feet high, guardrails twisted up. I don’t even know how to describe it. It’s pure destruction.”
Among those missing is Robert and Joni Brake, whose grandson joined “Elizabeth Vargas Reports” on Monday to discuss the search after flash floods destroyed the cabin where the couple, both in their 60s, were staying.
“We have not heard anything, no updates,” Brake told . “We have spent a tireless amount of hours walking throughout the river. I know my dad still currently has walked about 18 miles through the river today, searching, but as of now, we have no update and no sign of hope.”
Officials are scheduled to update the public on their efforts at 11 a.m. EDT. The news conference will be streamed from this story when it begins.
