Flood Strikes Alabama Town Halting Bus on Highway
Heavy rains and floodwaters breached an earthen dam near Heflin Alabama, sweeping a Greyhound bus off a highway and marooning 27 passengers in seven feet of water. National Guardsmen reinforced another dam overlooking the town while a youth, Harold M Waites Jr., 14, aided rescue efforts and disappeared. Dams upstream and a ruptured nearby embankment worsened flooding across Dixie, forcing dozens from homes and closing highways. Officials warned the Heflin dam danger was limited to potential unseen fissures beneath the wall.
