Floods along Gills Creek erase memories for Columbia residents
In Columbia South Carolina residents recount a week of flood misery as Gills Creek rose and breached 17 dams, flooding homes from luxury lakes to working class apartments. Neighbors saved lives while personal keepsakes drifted away, and downstream shops suffered as waters swirled past Liberty Income Tax and a car title pawn shop. Authorities warn relief will come with time as communities band together.
