Two children have been found dead and one more is missing after the vehicle they were in was swept away by floodwaters in Arizona's Tonto National Forest on Friday.

Gila County sheriff’s Lt. Virgil Dodd said the first body found was of a 5-year-old boy. The second dead child’s age and gender weren’t provided in a statement released by the Sheriff’s Office.

Emergency personnel and law enforcement helicopters rescued two adults and two children on Friday, who also were in the vehicle swept away in Tonto Creek. They were rescued from a small island and the bank of the creek in Tonto National Forest northeast of Phoenix.

The Gila County Sheriff’s Office says the truck was swept away after trying to cross a creek that was closed around 4 p.m. Friday.

Wow. I remember some other flood story in the past few years in that state.  Read about it here and it was also tragic.  Sad news.

Hope the adults wind up in jail.
They attempted to cross a road which was closed for flooding.

Search continues for 6-year-old after two children found dead following Tonto Basin creek flooding
https://www.12news.com/article/news/local/arizona/tonto-basin-children-found/75-2a7bb5e2-41a9-4a78-ba28-6b9cd73e3da3

Sadly, I don't like the chances of the 6 year old. They are maybe still looking?

Some rivers and creeks in AZ are seasonal, so some roads' crossings are in the dry or shallow stream bed. Obviously this sets up misjudged crossing tragedies like this.
