16 dead, 4 missing after flash floods in polygamy town
We are praying for all! Family and friends and rescue workers! God Bless the families and rescue workers, in Jesus name, Amen! The death toll has risen after devastating flash floods hit a national park and Warren Jeff’s sect of polygamist in Utah earlier this week.
Flash flooding in southern Utah has killed at least 16 people since Monday night; four others remain missing.
Twelve of those deaths are in the small Utah border community of Hildale after a flash flood swept through the town. Three of the dead are adults and six are children, according to authorities, and most of the families of the deceased and missing have been notified. Washington County Emergency Services told The Weather Channel one person is still missing, and it is unclear whether the individual is an adult or child.
