SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Fire Department responded to 25 calls for water rescues following flash flooding triggered by storms late Sunday night into Monday morning.
SAFD spokesman Woody Woodward said one caller reported at least five people who may have been swept away by fast-moving water in a drainage tunnel just after midnight near Interstate 10 and El Monte Boulevard, not far from West Avenue.
