Those searches will be a "huge undertaking," said Houston Fire chief
Samuel Peña. The southwest part of Houston, where the searches will
begin Thursday, has 16,000 single-family homes and 2,500 multi-family
homes, he said.
"We expect to find people in these areas. Some of them have made it up
to the attic and that's where they've been waiting for a rescue," Peña
said.
As the death toll continues to rise, Houston Police chief Acevedo said
he was well aware of the bad news that might lie ahead.
"We just continue to pray that once the water starts receding and
we're able to do secondary searches and complete assessments of the
interior of homes and businesses that the body count -- that we know
will rise -- doesn't rise significantly," he said.
