According to HPD, Officer H. Scott heard a man yelling for help in a trailer park near where the San Jacinto River enters Lake Houston.

On the same day, Sheriff Ed Gonzalez shared his own photos of him and his deputies making high-water rescues in east Harris County. One of the photos shows nearly a dozen puppies rescued.

The flood waters have since steadily been receding but roads in the area, which saw a majority of flooding, are still considered hazardous. Additionally, Harris County is offering ways to help residents who are picking up the pieces from the severe weather damage.
