[b]Texas Mother Dies Saving Her 3-Year-Old Daughter During Hurricane Harvey Flood: ‘The Baby Was Clinging to Her’[/b]

"A Texas woman saved her 3-year-old daughter from drowning during a flood in Beaumont, Texas, on Tuesday.

Officer Carol Riley, a spokeswoman for the Beaumont Police Department, tells PEOPLE the unidentified 41-year-old was found floating in a canal with her daughter clinging to her.

Riley said the woman 'absolutely saved the child’s life.'

'They were in the water for quite some time,' Riley says. 'When the baby was found the baby was clinging to her. The mother did the best she could to keep her child up over the water.'

'The baby also had a backpack that was helping her float on her back and she was holding on to her mom,' Riley adds." [c=#BF0000]http://people.com/human-interest/texas-child-saved-from-flood/[/c]
