(AP) — Authorities are trying to rescue around 300 campers stranded at a park near Tucson due to flooding from recent rain storms. Rangers at Catalina State Park said they hoped to have all of the campers out by Wednesday evening. The park, located about 6 miles north of Tucson, has been closed since Monday morning after rains caused a wash to flood. Authorities said water, mud and sand are so deep at the park's campground that even lifted trucks and vehicles with four-wheel drive can't get through.
