KERRVILLE, Texas (AP) — Emergency crews temporarily suspended their search for victims of catastrophic flooding in central Texas. The halt comes with new warnings that additional rain would again cause waterways to surge. The search and recovery efforts were paused most of Sunday as thunderstorms with heavy rainfall swept through the area. Ingram Fire Department officials had ordered search crews to immediately evacuate the Guadalupe River corridor in Kerr County. Late Sunday afternoon, rescue efforts in western Kerr County were allowed to resume. Search-and-rescue teams have been looking for missing victims of the July 4 weekend flooding that killed at least 132 people and left more than 170 missing.
