ARIZONA – Republican Representative from Arizona, David Schweikert, said he heard something resembling 'a freight train crashing against a rock' when a sudden flood swept through the landscape near his rafting group on Saturday. Schweikert stated on Tuesday to NBC News from his office in Washington that the loud noise was followed by a powerful current of mud and debris-laden water. Two visitors died and another person remains missing after a sudden flood, triggered by a sudden downpour, briefly turned the Bright Angel Creek into a raging river. About 80 people were evacuated from nearby camping areas close to the historic Phantom Ranch within the park.
