Words of Caution:

It is unfortunate, but disasters of this sort almost always attract the attention of those who willfully and systematically intend to do harm to those already suffering.  Below is a listing of warnings we have been advised of so far.  If you should see anything that doesn't look to be up and above board, call the Hickman County Sheriff's Office or the Centerville Police Department.
