The Coconino County Medical Examiner’s Office responded and took the victim. Officials say at least 1-person has been killed and up to 15-people remain missing. Bright Angel Canyon was hit by a massive flash flood over the weekend, forcing the closure of Phantom Ranch, Bright Angel Campground, a portion of North Kaibab Trail and the Colorado River to river traffic. In addition, Stage-4 water restrictions, go into effect on the South Rim at noon today. The Transcanyon Waterline was also severely damaged in the flooding. The Red Cross established a shelter at Grand Canyon High School.
