Aid comes slower than storm in Puerto Rico village
In Montebello near Manati, residents like Maribel Valentin Espino rely on relatives and a local cattle ranch for water while volunteer brigades clear debris after Hurricane Maria. They report no notices from FEMA or Puerto Rico officials since the Sept. 20 disaster that killed at least 16 and left 3.4 million people without power. Neighbors say relief efforts focus on San Juan, leaving remote areas under siege by isolation.
