- Description
- Emergency crews carried out more than 30 water rescues in McCaysville after overnight flooding triggered a flash flood emergency, according to the city's police chief. Water reached 6 to 7 feet in some downtown areas, and the Toccoa River surpassed its previous record. The Toccoa River is receding much faster than expected. As of around noon, it’s down to 9.87 feet. No serious injuries have been reported, shelters are open for those affected, and the city remains under a boil water advisory. This is a developing story.

- Catastrophic flash flooding in Georgia town
- Runtime

- Description
- Thunderstorms caused record flooding overnight in twin towns straddling the Georgia-Tennessee border, submerging some buildings to their rooflines on Thursday as emergency responders rescued dozens of people.
The storms dropped heavy rain across a mountainous area causing flooding on the Toccoa River between McCaysville, Georgia, and Copperhill, Tennessee, causing life-threatening flooding on both sides. The Toccoa then flows into the Ocoee River, where the Tennessee Valley Authority was managing water levels due to the high flows at three of its hydroelectric dams.

- Title
- Georgia teacher says school board fired her for being Black
- Runtime
- 1:01
- Date posted
- 3 days ago
- Description
- A Georgia school board is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to block a discrimination suit brought by Dr. Lana Foster, a teacher who says the Echols County school district demoted, mistreated and ultimately fired her because she is Black.
A federal judge and the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals have already ruled against board members and superintendents, denying their request for qualified immunity. The Supreme Court is now deciding if it will hear the case.
Among the examples Foster cites in her case: court records show two board members involved in the decision to fire her exchanged texts using racial slurs, including the N-word, in casual text messages. The texts were not directed at Foster and did not reference her by name, but surfaced during her lawsuit as evidence of what Foster called blatant racism by board members.
