Flags lowered to half-staff in Texas in honor of flood victims
Flags were lowered to half-staff in flood-stricken central Texas on Wednesday, July 9, to honor the victims of a devastating flash flooding that killed at least 119 people on July 4.
The statewide order to lower flags was given early on Wednesday by Governor Greg Abbott, and will last until sunrise on Monday, July 14.
As of Tuesday evening, there were more than 170 people still unaccounted for, according to figures provided by Abbott, suggesting the death toll could still rise significantly. Searchers have not found anyone alive since Friday, July 4.
