Devastating flash floods from a storm that pounded central Texas have killed at least 51 people. Officials say the death toll is 43 and likely to grow in the hardest-hit area of Kerr County. Authorities said at a news conference Saturday that 15 of the victims were children. Gov. Greg Abbott vowed that crews would work around the clock to rescue and recover victims. Still, authorities have not said how many people are missing beyond 27 children who were at a girls' summer camp. Abbott also issued a proclamation declaring Sunday as a day of prayer across the state in response to the flooding.
