New Mexico flooding leaves 3 dead as fast-moving water sweeps through mountain resort town
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Just days after flash flooding devastated the Hill Country of Texas, killing more than 100, three people have died in New Mexico after monsoon rains triggered flash flooding.
A man and two young children, a 4-year-old girl and 7-year-old boy, were swept away by floodwaters on Tuesday, the village of Ruidoso said in a statement. The situation was so severe in the popular summer retreat that an entire house was caught on camera being swept downstream.
“Our hearts are broken for the families who have lost their loved ones in this terrible tragedy,” Mayor Lynn Crawford said in a statement.
“The entire Village of Ruidoso extends our deepest sympathy and compassion to these grieving families during this unimaginably difficult time. We are united in our sorrow and our commitment to supporting one another as we face this devastating loss together.”

The Rio Ruidoso rose to a record-breaking 20 feet, which is five feet higher than its previous record, the village said.
The devastation is attributed to the torrential rainfall over burn scar areas from the South Fork and Salt fires that occurred last year.

“Emergency crews conducted 50-60 swift-water rescues during the event,” a village of Ruidoso media release said.
The water had receded by the evening and search and rescue were scouring the town for the missing people, while public works crews cleared debris from the roadways. Some cars were left stranded in the mud.

“Tonight, I signed an emergency declaration request to get federal response teams and repair resources on the ground immediately. We’re encouraged to learn that additional federal resources are already on the way,” New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham said on Facebook.

“New Mexico is mobilizing every resource we have, but the Village of Ruidoso needs federal support to recover from this disaster. We’ve watched Texas receive the federal resources they desperately needed, and Ruidoso deserves that same urgent response,” she concluded.

LSU baseball found itself Saturday night in almost an identical situation to the night before at Dudy Noble Field.
The Tigers held a multi-run lead over No. 11 Mississippi State. In the series opener Friday night, LSU led the Bulldogs 7-3 before giving it up and ultimately losing in extra innings.
During game two Saturday, the Tigers jumped out to a 7-2 lead over MSU by the fourth inning. LSU’s top bullpen arms couldn’t hold the lead against Mississippi State in game one. One night later, the Tigers’ bullpen gave up another big lead to the home team.
It was déjà vu for LSU as it lost to the Bulldogs, 9-8, to lose its third straight league series.
The Tigers (24-20, 6-14 SEC) have now lost eight straight SEC games, the longest conference losing streak in program history.
Sophomore reliever Cooper Williams gave up a grand slam to Mississippi State’s Jacob Parker in the seven inning that tied the game 7-7. Parker was the only batter he faced.
In the eighth, senior Tiger pitcher Grant Fontenot gave up multiple hits and the Bulldogs scored two runs to take the lead.
LSU chased Mississippi State starter Duke Stone early but reliever Jack Bauers proved to be unbreakable as he gave up just one run on three hits while striking out eight across 3⅔ innings into the ninth.
Sophomore designated hitter Cade Arrambide jumpstarted the Tigers with a two-run home run in the first. He also had an RBI double in the fifth and finished the game 2 for 4 with three RBIs and two runs. Freshmen Omar Serna Jr. had three hits, including the solo homer in the ninth to pull the Tigers within a run. Freshman Mason Braun reached base each of his first three plate appearances.
Grant Fontenot gives up the lead for LSU. Tigers are now three outs away from losing the series.
MSU’s Bauers is mowing LSU hitters down now, up to seven strikeouts.
Mississippi State’s Jacob Parker just hit a grand slam to tie this game up. It’s deja vu for Tiger fans.
Two reach but LSU can’t bring them home. Some insurance runs would be nice for the Tigers.
That’s the most emotion I’ve ever seen from Lachenmayer. MSU gets a runner to second but he got the big strikeout to end the threat.
Braun got a two-out but nothing else for the Tigers.
Danny Lachenmayer masterfully worked around a jam to get out of the fifth inning, preserving LSU’s 5-run lead.
Tigers have blown this game wide open. Arrambide with an RBI double before Eddie Yamin cranked a three-run home run. The question is still being begged though: Can LSU hold onto the lead?
Schmidt is doing a decent job of getting himself out of sticky situations. He gives a up run in the fourth but he limited the damage.
Jack Ruckert ripped a one-out double down the line left field line but William Patrick and Tanner Reaves flied out to end the threat.
Schmidt strikes out a pair and he’s up to 4 Ks so far tonight.
Nothing doing for the Tigers on offense.
Schmidt has looked good through the first couple of innings tonight. One mistake that led to the homer and the walk wasn’t really on him.
More baserunning blunders for the Tigers. I would say that can’t happen but it’s who this LSU team is this year.
William Schmidt gives up a solo home run to Ace Reese. But that was his only mistake in an otherwise good opening frame.
Another hot start for the Tigers in Starkville. They plate three runs in the first, highlighted by a two-run blast from Cade Arrambide. Now the question is can LSU hold a lead?

RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — North Carolina’s largest craft beer festival returned to downtown Raleigh, continuing on Saturday, bringing thousands of visitors and dozens of breweries together for the second day of the two-day event.
Organizers said Brewgaloo was expected to draw about 50,000 people, with nearly 80 breweries from across the state offering samples.
The festival began Friday evening with a ceremonial keg tapping, followed by a block party. Attendees enjoyed unlimited three-ounce samples, including limited releases, barrel-aged beers, and sours.
Saturday’s street festival ran from noon to 8 p.m. along Fayetteville Street, featuring dozens of breweries, food trucks, vendors and two live music stages. Although some much-needed rain cut the iconic Brewgaloo festival short, many called the festival a massive success.
“It’s nice to be able to see a lot of people from different areas and a lot of different breweries in one location. All I have to do is buy a ticket and I get to support local brewers,” said Raleigh resident Ryan Walker.
Festivalgoers were able to sample more than 350 craft beverages by redeeming drink tickets for either a pint or a three-ounce pour.
Admission to Brewgaloo was free, but tickets were required for beer sampling.
This was the fifth year that Goldsboro Brew Works participated in the festival.
“There’s double the amount of kegs that we normally bring, so here’s hoping,” said Zachary Fein, one of the owners of Goldsboro Brew Works. “Every single time we get people after Brewgaloo, we get them wanting to buy kegs, we get them coming to the taproom on the way to the beach.
“We’re remote, we’re 45 minutes down 70 from here, we’re east,” Fein said. “A lot of these folks have never heard of us before and it’s really kind of great for us to get our name out.”
This year’s event came amid amplified concerns about safety downtown. In the past few weeks, several people were stabbed during a brawl on Fayetteville Street and a man was seriously injured in a shooting in Glenwood South.
“It’s always concerning to see any incident in Raleigh,” Raleigh Mayor Janet Cowell said. “We are doing several things working with our police chief. Reallocating resources based on data and crime patterns. I think we’ve found that this is going to be one of the areas.”
According to Cowell, the city council is also exploring adding more police officers in the upcoming budget.
For Brewgaloo specifically, Raleigh police had barricades and barriers in place to protect the tens of thousands who were expected to enjoy the festivities this weekend.

“Overall, Raleigh’s a safe place,” Cowell said. “I think when there’s a lot more people is when we actually have fewer incidents because you’ve got so much activity, eyes on people, feet on the sidewalks.”
This year’s event also came on the heels of recent controversy involving Shop Local Raleigh, the group that organizes Brewgaloo. Executive director Jennifer Martin apologized after making an anonymous social media comment, stating “there is “there’s no such thing as a transgender son.”
The backlash led to the creation of a separate event, the “Y’all Means All” North Carolina Beer Festival, which is scheduled for Saturday at the same time as Brewgaloo. More than 16 breweries are expected to participate in that event, hosted by Raleigh Brewing Company, with a portion of proceeds benefiting the LGBT Center of Raleigh.
