Gov. Greg Abbott said the state has mobilized “all necessary resources” to parts of the Texas Hill Country hit with “devastating” and deadly flooding Friday.

Dozens of people are dead in central Texas in what officials called a "mass casualty event" after devastating flash floods slammed Hill Country, with water rescues taking place along the Guadalupe River.

Kerrville officials joined the governor during the updates. Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha confirmed flooding has led to 24 fatalities. One fatality was found in Kendall County but the sheriff could not confirmed if it was related to today's event.
