A father frantically searching for his daughter — who he feared was swept away by the catastrophic flooding of Texas’ Guadalupe River — instead made a grim discovery.
Ty Badon was calling out his daughter’s name as he and his son searched the land near receded flood waters when Badon said they discovered the body of a child, according to CNN.

“My son and I were walking and I thought it was a mannequin,” Badon said, becoming emotional as he recounted the grim moment.
“It was a little boy,” he said, shaking his head, “eight or ten years old, and he was dead.”
“So we were just walking, doing the same thing we were doing when we stumbled across him,” he told CNN.
