Flash flooding in a remote area of Arizona's Grand Canyon has left 15 people missing, with two bodies recovered. A storm sent a torrent through Bright Angel Canyon and into the Colorado River, sweeping away a cabin, inundating campsites and destroying footbridges and trails. Hikers described hearing a rumbling "like a train" as the flood approached without warning. Helicopters were used to evacuate people as emergency teams continued searching for those missing or trapped. Authorities warned that more storms could bring further flooding.
