GoKawiilGrand Canyon flash flood kills one, leaves 15 unaccounted for, cuts water pipeline
A major flash flood struck Bright Angel Creek in the Grand Canyon on Saturday, killing a 46-year-old man whose body was found near Crystal Rapids, and leaving about 15 people missing or unaccounted for. The surge pushed boulders into the Colorado River, prompted the airlift evacuation of more than 60 people, and destroyed the park's only pipeline supplying potable water to residents and tourists.
