Authorities have suspended the recovery effort for victims until Wednesday morning. "The amount of water that was in the flood channel this afternoon was quite possibly some of the deepest, fastest moving water that I've seen, and some other firefighters have seen," said Tom Ruiz, spokesman for Albuquerque Fire Rescue. Nolan Bennett, a field engineer for Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control, said he tried to warn people. "Right underneath Carlisle there was six individuals just sitting in the side of the arroyo down towards the bottom, just shooting up and talking. People don't realize how quickly the water can come down," said Bennett.
