The remnants of Tropical Depression Hanna are still bringing the threat of flooding on Monday, as a video was released from a rescue in Texas over the weekend.
The Texas A&M Task Force said on Facebook that three people were rescued from a sinking vessel on Saturday in Corpus Christi as Hurricane Hanna roared ashore.
Two people in their 80s and a 40-year-old boat owner were rescued as the vessel sank in rough waters and 65 mph winds, officials said.
"The TX-TF1 water rescue squad, comprised of members from Washington County EMS and TX-TF1 Water Group Supervisor Kevin Deramus, arrived as many of the boats in the marina were breaking apart and sinking," the group said.
