Search for missing campers after flooding in North Carolina
HIDDENITE, NC (WSOC/AP) — A fire department in North Carolina says that it’s responding to reports that more than 30 campers need to be rescued from a flooded campground in Alexander County.
The Charlotte Observer reported Thursday that the Hiddenite Family Campground sits along the South Yadkin River and is about 60 miles northwest of Charlotte.
According to WSOC, authorities are still searching for more people who were reportedly at the campsite when the flooding happened.
Heavy rain has fallen across western North Carolina and is being blamed for mudslides, flash flooding, and power outages.
Besides the campground, officials in Conover in Catawba County said on Twitter that rescuers are also responding to reports of a car that went over a bridge.
