At least four people are dead, dozens were rescued and several are unaccounted for after the tropical storm slammed the South.
Tropical Storm Eta, which was once a, is dumping heavy rain on the Carolinas and Virginia. Homes and roads are flooded and bridges have buckled, at least four people are dead and while dozens have been rescued, several remained unaccounted for. The fast rising waters killed at least three people at a campground in North Carolina’s Alexander County, and a boy died in a swollen creek in a different part of the state. More than two dozen were rescued from the Hiddenite campsite, but rescuers were still racing against the clock Thursday evening to try to find two people missing, including a one-year-old baby, both of whom were presumably swept away by flooding.
