Five days after deadly floods struck central Texas, search and rescue teams are continuing to probe debris for those still missing.

The death toll in Kerr County crept up to 87 on Tuesday as search and rescue teams recovered three more bodies in the flood-ravaged hills of central Texas, according to officials in the county worst hit by the disaster.

Mexican firefighters trained in search and rescue have joined the efforts to find the victims of the tragic flooding in the battered Texas Hill Country.
