Indiana flooding causes multiple deaths and triggers federal emergency declaration

Severe storms and historic rainfall have caused devastating flooding across Indiana, resulting in at least five to six deaths. The flooding has impacted multiple counties, with significant damage reported along the White River. In Indianapolis, Mayor Joe Hogsett described the situation as the city's most severe flooding in over 30 years.

Governor Mike Braun declared a statewide disaster emergency and confirmed that President Donald Trump intends to approve a Presidential Emergency Declaration. This federal assistance, potentially totaling up to $5 million, is intended to support rescue operations, evacuations, and recovery efforts.

Extreme weather conditions included record-breaking precipitation, with some areas receiving over 11 inches of rain within a two-day period. The White River reached record crest levels in Anderson and Noblesville, surpassing marks set in 1913. Emergency responders have conducted numerous rescues using boats to reach stranded residents, and the Indiana National Guard has been deployed to assist in the response.
