Some one help me out here...

I just heard reports from local TV that a county in Mississippi has confirmed at least 50 people dead in that county.




That is correct. WKRG in Mobile has a live feed on the internet. One of their reporters stopped in Biloxi on the way back from Louisiana and interviewed people. They just announced that they have 50 confirmed deaths so far in the Biloxi area..I don't remember the county name but it's in the Biloxi area...I just saw the clip again..Harrison County.

This reporter interviewed an older man who said he lost his wife. He said the water was rising in their house and he was holding on to his grandchildren and his wife. His wife told him to let her go...to tend to their grandchildren. He let her go and she was washed away.

So sad...
