LLANO, Texas—A body was found in a rain-swollen lake in central Texas after fast-moving floodwaters destroyed a bridge, forced the evacuation of riverside homes, and led to numerous water rescues on Oct. 16, following days of heavy rains.
Video shows the bridge crumbling as it was overrun by the bloated, roiling Llano River in Kingsland, about 65 miles northwest of Austin. The Llano and Colorado rivers meet at Kingsland, and the National Weather Service said both were experiencing “major flooding.”
