Earlier this morning around 6:30 a.m., the Sinton Volunteer Fire Department was dispatched to Highway 188 near FM 630 for a report of an individual stranded in high water.
Firefighters arrived on scene and conducted a rescue, safely assisting the driver out of the flooded area and into one of our apparatus.
We would like to remind the public to use extreme caution during periods of heavy rain and flooding. Never attempt to drive through water covering the roadway. Just a few inches of moving water can carry a vehicle away.
Turn Around, Don’t Drown.
