WASHINGTON (AP) — Her voice breaking, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Tuesday that emergency responders in Texas are “still looking for a lot of little girls” who remain missing after a catastrophic flood during the holiday weekend.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem joins 'Fox & Friends' to discuss the 'horrific' flooding in Texas and the response from the Trump administration.

President Donald Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem spoke about the federal response to the deadly flash flooding in Texas and offered words of comfort during a Cabinet meeting Tuesday.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott said Tuesday that many of those who are not accounted for were staying in state’s Hill Country but did not register at a camp or hotel.

The loss of life is unimaginable. While we are still grappling with what happened, it’s important to understand the historic nature of this flood. It likely already ranks as the third-deadliest flood in Texas history.

During a press conference with officials of Kerr County, Texas, reporters asked tough questions about the handling of the flood emergency system.

People gathered on Sunday along the roadsides and churches across Kerrville to mourn the loss of lives and pray for the ones still missing from the floods.

At least 13 fatalities were reported Friday as devastating floods slammed Texas' Hill Country with water rescues taking place along the Guadalupe River, officials said.
