4 dead after heavy rain in Nashville causes record flooding
▶At least four people have died after heavy rain caused flooding to reach record levels in Nashville ▶One of the victims was found at the Nashboro Village golf course, according to the Metro Nashville Police Department. ▶Investigators believe the victim, Douglas Hammond, 65, was swept away by high floodwaters after he got out of a car that ran off the road, police said. He lived near the golf course, authorities said. ▶Garry Cole, 70, of South Nashville, was found dead inside a car that was submerged by flooding from the creek next to a Walmart, police said later Sunday evening. ▶Two other victims, a 46-year-old man and a 64-year-old woman, were near a homeless camp in a wooded area adjacent to Wentworth-Caldwell Park, police said. ▶At least 130 people had to be rescued from flooded areas around Nashville, ABC Nashville affiliate WKRN reported. ▶A Metro Nashville police officer was among those rescued, Nashville Mayor John Cooper told reporters at a news conference Sunday. ▶Officer Hendrik Kruger was driving home in his personal vehicle when he was swept away by fast-moving currents and managed to escape his car and cling to a tree until help arrived, Cooper said. He is now recovering from a leg injury at a local hospital. ▶Kruger's car was later found in high waters, said Metro Nashville Police Department spokesperson Don Aaron. ▶More than 7 inches of rain have fallen in parts of the Nashville metro area in two days, the second-highest amount on record. Some waterways in Nashville have risen to their highest levels since 2010. ▶While the heaviest rain has moved east of the area, it still experienced some additional rainfall Sunday morning. ▶Some areas will continue to see rising waters throughout the afternoon, Cooper said. ▶Cooper signed a local state of emergency Sunday to seek state and federal resources for recovery efforts in Davidson County. ------------ 𝐂𝐫𝐞: 𝐚𝐜𝐛𝐍𝐄𝐖𝐒
