I called to touch base with the firehouse about supplies, news, etc. Chief Holmes assures me that everything is fine. He informed me that Rep. Arnold is sending two truckloads of food trucks for distribution. They are delivering them to the Little Sisters of the Poor. That’s a good thing.
I asked him if he has any information about power. I understood him to say that the focus is on the “infrastructure”, bringing up the business and financial sections (like the CBD) first. I asked him about the power in Gretna, and he was not aware that they have power. Maybe they don’t? Hmmm.
Finally, I asked about the gunfire. He said he has not heard any (?), and that all the problems are on the East Bank. I gave him specifics (see previous posts), and he said he’d “pass the information along”. Once I got specific, he recalled “hearing something about it”. I strongly suggested he / they check in with Vinnie’s block.
So – this really is very interesting. Not sure what to make of it…..
