Dozens of people who lived in the High Oak East Apartments are now in hotels and trying to figure out where to move with many of their belongings now gone.
More than 100,000 people across North Texas are still without power, many in the hard-hit city of Richardson .Workers covered the roof of the apartment building with a tarp on Thursday, but much of the damage was already done early Tuesday morning when hurricane-force winds ripped off part of the roof, destroying people's belongings below."The first step is to make sure residents are housed. So we are very fortunate with our partnership with the city of Richardson .
The nonprofit is ready to serve up 400 meals at the Network of Community Ministries for lunch and dinner through Saturday."We were set up all outdoors. With the weather that came in, the rain, the potential for severe weather, this organization opened up their doors to us to let us use their kitchen," said Huggins.With rain making the powerless houses dark in the middle of the day, this was a nice escape for Shawnda Krajca, her daughter and a friend.Krajca's daughter is deaf.
