Teams of local deputies sent to south Georgia for recovery efforts after Hurricane Michael
In the wake of the storm, the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office has deployed deputies to help affected areas
Hurricane Michael
Forsyth County Cpl. Pete Sabella said that the team has been working 18-hour days helping to relieve local law enforcement officers in south Georgia.
The process of picking up the pieces after Hurricane Michael has just begun for much of the South. With wind speeds as high as 80 mph, Michael tore through Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas late last week, leaving more than a dozen people dead and thousands homeless and out of power. But after all of the destruction, recovery efforts have begun to bring people back home, President Donald Trump has visited various locations throughout the South and FEMA has deployed thousands of their staff with food, water and other supplies.
