8-year-old girl missing following crash that ki-lled her father on Christmas Eve

An 8-year-old girl is missing following a crash that kil*led her father on Christmas Eve in Texas, according to authorities.

Will and Kristen Robinson, along with their 4 kids, were driving to Texas from Oklahoma on Tuesday to celebrate the holiday.

In heavy rain, the Robinsons’ vehicle slid off a highway and into a flooded drainage ditch near Sherman, Texas — a town with a population of 43,000 located about 50 miles north of the Dallas-Forth Worth metro.

“Will kicked out the driver’s side window because they were trapped underwater,” said Lindsey Perkins, a friend of the family told WOWT. “The car flipped back and forth.”

According to a GoFundMe page, due to the heroic actions of Will, the family was able to get out of the car.

However, after getting most of the family out, there was still one child in need.

The couple’s 8-year-old daughter, Clara, was swept away by the floodwaters.

Friends and family members said Will lost his life trying to save their 8-year-old daughter. On Tuesday, Will’s body was recovered, but Clara is still missing.

For the past few days, crews in Texas have expanded their search hoping to find her amid treacherous conditions.

First responders and assisting agencies say they will not stop looking until she is found.
