Hunt – When Sgt. Tyler Cottonware woke up before dawn that morning, he expected a busy day. The City of Kerrville Police sergeant had plans to work the Fourth of July festivities. He knew it had rained overnight. He knew flooding was possible. What he didn’t know was that within hours he would find himself rescuing people from rooftops, pulling survivors from floodwaters, and helping coordinate a mass casualty response in his hometown. “I woke up at about 3:45,” Cottonware recalled.
