A sudden flash flood in Pennsylvania has left a family devastated, taking the life of 32-year-old Katie Seley as she bravely tried to save her two young children, Mattie and Conrad, who are still missing.
The flood struck without warning, submerging General Washington Memorial Boulevard and trapping cars.
Katie, her husband Jim, their eldest son Jack, and her mother Dahlia were on their way to a relative’s barbecue when their car was overwhelmed by the rising waters. Jim was able to save Jack, but Katie and her mother were swept away from the children by the powerful currents.
Rescuers have recovered Katie’s body, and the search for Mattie and Conrad continues. The family, heartbroken by the tragedy, is deeply appreciative of the outpouring of support from the community during this incredibly difficult time.
