"The 3rd District was flooded out of its Moss Street headquarters, and officers had been trapped in the dental school for three days.
Riley said many of the district's cars had been washed out and that evacuating officers from the dental school proved difficult because the water level was 6 feet below the nearest windows."
This story is a crock.
If they had trouble being evacuated from the Dental School, how did they manage to drive away in brand new Cadillac's in 6 feet of water?
But to more effectively fight crime you need to have some bling.
No,no,no, the article says: "...the water level was 6 feet below the nearest windows." So where were the nearest windows already? The ground floor?
