Montgomery County officials say they know the location of a Boy Scout Troop from Louisiana that went missing near Langley, but say they haven't made contact with them.

They say they are unable to reach them right now because of flooding in the area. They also say they feel confident the scouts and their leaders are okay because of their training.

Langley is located just miles from the Albert Pike Campground, where 20 people were killed during flash floods last June.

We have a crew headed to the area, and will continue to keep you updated on Channel 7 News and KATV.com.

Two links from Louisiana media as of 3:15:

thanks for the updates! glad to hear they r ok. i really dont understand why they would have gone in there though!

did i misread ? i thought rangers had found them but couldnt get them out yet?

I wish I could make it up there for this one. They're from near me and I know those trails.

A small group of campers and campfire were spotted after midnight and supplies dropped, rescue underway.
