Cleanup begins in Pulaski County

After storms ripped through the area, they left behind devastation. Mayor Alan Keck said it’s been all hands on deck to clean up the damage.

“Crushed a lot of the businesses. We sort of triaged and set up command there at the area technology center. Wild experience, because almost an hour later, we got more warnings that another wave was coming, so we ended up going inside,” he said.

Treven Mounce said his mom was home alone when the storm moved through the area near Bourbon Road, leaving debris scattered.

“I mean, it was all over the place. You could tell it. It got really bad through here. I mean, all this right here was scattered all over the basement. Their garage over there, it had the roof completely ripped off of it. And it’s a quarter mile away,” he explained.

Mounce said the community is rallying together.

“And we’ve spent the day, you know, moving stuff that, you know, would have been out in the, you know, rain and such in the different storage areas,” he added.
