Flooding Forces Evacuations at Covington Housing Authority Apartments After Heavy Rain
#wqeb973newz | Covington, GA – 🌧️🚨 Flash flooding hit a Covington apartment complex Sunday morning, forcing evacuations at the Covington Housing Authority near Alcovy Road.
Water poured through the parking lot, basketball court 🏀, and between buildings 🏘️.
👥 Residents say flooding is a recurring issue, but this time, it damaged a ceiling and left a woman in a wheelchair soaked after responders pushed her through the water.
“We wake up to this… the whole area just flooded,” said Sosa JaRico Hendrix, who was visiting family when it happened.
Water receded by 1 p.m., but many are asking: How many more floods will it take?
