Overview
- Houston fire officials said witnesses saw a woman carried by fast water near 9200 Chimney Rock and reported it immediately.
- A video shared with responders showed her walk to the bank and appear to slip in, and they estimated her age at 20 to 30.
- Crews in two boats, drone teams, and a Houston police dive unit searched from Chimney Rock to Texas 288, covering nearly seven miles.
- After about an hour and 45 minutes with no sighting, teams halted operations because the current measured about 12 knots, which challenges even strong swimmers.
- Officials said the best outcome would be that she grabbed debris and got out on her own, though they stressed this has not been confirmed.
