Who are Amber Smith and Riley Noble? Kentucky couple’s 4 children swept away in CATASTROPHIC flood
Four children in Kentucky are among the latest victims of the state's historic flooding, which has left some areas completely underwater. A family was left completely devastated after they were swept away from their parents' hands in the flood. Amber Smith and Riley Noble lost their four children, Maddison, 8, Riley Jr, 6, Nevaeh, 4, and Chance, who is 18 months old when trying to get to safety during Kentucky's flash flood, according to Amber's cousin, Brittany Trejo. The children's bodies were recovered at about 12:30 pm on Friday, July 29.
"They got on the roof and the entire underneath washed out with them and the children. They managed to get to a tree and held the children a few hours before a big tide came and wash them all away at the same time," Trejo said, according to Kentucky.com. "The mother and father were stranded in the tree for eight hours before anyone got there to help." A GoFundMe campaign has so far raised a little under $34,000 for funeral expenses.
