A tragedy still, but the death estimates appear to have been scaled back;

"9:45 a.m. ET: Sgt. William Patrick Swanton, spokesman for the Waco police, said at a press conference that one of the missing individuals has been found, a constable who is also a firefighter. He is currently hospitalized with “pretty serious injuries.”

“We’re still missing 3-4 firefighters,” he said. “No police or EMS are missing, as far as I’m aware.”

Swanton said that the “rough number” of fatalities remains at 5-15, but emphasized that it is still an estimate."
