Officials say they are treating this as a rescue, but are 'fairly certain' it's a recovery mission.
Four people are dead and three are missing after a sudden flash flood swamped a Pennsylvania road and swept away several cars. Two children from the same family are among the missing, which include a 9-month-old baby boy and his 2-year-old sister. Officials are also searching for an adult female.
"We are treating this as a rescue, but we are fairly certain that we are in a recovery mode at this time," Brewer said in a press conference Sunday.Brewer called the intense flooding worse than Hurricane Ida, a Category 4 storm that ripped through several states in 2021. At the time of the incident, 11 cars were on the road and three were swept away, according to the Associated Press. Four-to-five feet of water covered the road.
Each of the three vehicles that were swept away were located, but no one was found inside. One was found about 1.5 miles from the road where the flood occurred.
