A powerful storm ripped through the North Texas city of Mineral Wells Tuesday evening and caused serious damage, authorities said. The fire chief noted the storm appears to have been a tornado. Mineral Wells is located about 45 miles west of Fort Worth.

The storm appeared to have blown through an industrial park, shredding buildings, ripping apart roofs and scattering debris across the area. Metal was wrapped around poles, and an HVAC plant was heavily damaged, but employees had been sent home ahead of the storm. Mayor Regan Johnson confirmed two major manufacturers were impacted, though there wasn't an estimate yet as to how many employees would face job displacement.

Debris, downed trees, and leaning power lines littered the area. First responders continued to assess the damage overnight.     

City officials said Tuesday night that several people were injured and two were brought to Palo Pinto General Hospital, but no critical injuries or deaths were reported. Officials affirmed this in an update shared Wednesday morning in a press conference, noting that three more people who were hurt were also brought to a hospital via private vehicle. 

Mineral Wells Fire Chief Ryan Dunn also said on Wednesday that several other people who were hurt refused transport to the hospital.

Dunn said one of the patients taken to the hospital via ambulance faced a traumatic injury; the other faced a medical issue.

Camp Mystic's Victim Relief Fund: 

Six months in, the journey to healing is still ongoing. Your support makes a difference. 

Here's how your donation can help:

$50: Emergency travel or accommodation for families

$250: Trauma counseling and mental health support

$1,000: Ongoing medical care and rehabilitation for survivors

“We recognize that returning to Camp Mystic carries both hope and heartache,” Camp Mystic's owners wrote in a letter to families this month. “For many of your daughters, this return is not simple, but it is a courageous step in their healing journey.”

It is unclear how many girls will return to Camp Mystic when the camp begins enrollment next month, but a spokesperson said there is “strong interest.” The camp's owner, Dick Eastland, died in the flood and his family has vowed to enhance safety measures before reopening, including two-way radios in every cabin and new flood warning river monitors.

The families of seven campers and two counselors at Camp Mystic who died during the July 4 Hill Country floods sued the camp Monday, alleging that its owners’ negligence resulted in a “self-created disaster” that led to the fatalities.

Twenty-five campers and two counselors were among the more than 130 people that died in this summer’s flash flooding near Kerrville along the Guadalupe River.

Texas river flood leaves at least 43 dead across two counties; children's camp evacuated by helicopter.

The National Guard was deployed in Texas on Friday after a devastating river flood killed at least 25 people and swept away dozens of children at a local Christian camp.

Heavy rain on Friday morning caused the Guadalupe River to rise nearly 30 feet in 45 minutes.

State officials confirmed Friday night that at least 43 people are dead, including adults and children. Among the deaths, 24 were reported in Kerr County and one was in Kendall County.

Between 23 and 25 people remain missing from Camp Mystic, an all-girls private Christian camp along the Guadalupe River, according to officials. The camp had more than 750 attendees. 

Kerrville Mayor Joe Herring Jr. issued a disaster declaration amid emergency evacuations. 

Guadalupe River flooding leaves Kerrville homes devastated, rescue efforts underway.

 Major damage is being reported along the Guadalupe River in Kerrville after deadly flooding struck the area on the Fourth of July.  At Comfort, the Guadalupe River reached a current level of 29.86 feet after rising 22 feet in just 30 minutes between 9-9:30 a.m. Meanwhile, at Kerrville, the river rose 21.6 feet in one hour, from 3:45 a.m. to 4:45 a.m., with the current level now at 11.64 feet, showing the rapid and severe flooding impacting the area. Homes near the river have been inundated with water, some swept off their foundations, while others remain surrounded by debris and mud. Residents are trying to save what is left. Vehicles have also been severely impacted—many were submerged, displaced, or destroyed by the force of the floodwaters. Streets near the river are littered with debris, and emergency crews continue to conduct rescues and assess damage.
