Severe flooding caused by torrential rains has killed at least ten people in Texas, with the city of San Antonio among the hardest hit, local authorities confirmed Friday.
The deluge struck early Thursday, triggering flash floods that swept vehicles off roads and into nearby rivers.
Emergency crews have carried out over 70 water rescues so far and are still searching for at least four more potential victims.
San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg expressed heartfelt condolences, saying the city stands with the grieving families.
