When asked whether the emergency manager was awake to make an emergency warning, the sheriff said: “I can’t tell you right now.” When a reporter pushed him for an answer, Leitha said: “It’s not just so easy to press a button, okay, there’s much more and we told you a few times.”
Reporters continued to ask about the district’s warning system, but the authorities escaped questions to focus on recovery efforts.
Texas Game Wardens Lt Col Ben Baker, “We understand that you have many questions. We understand this. But right now, this team has focused on bringing people home,” he said. “This is our focus.”
