August 27, 2020 - Emergency personnel throughout Shelby County continue to respond to damaged areas, clearing debris and assisting those in need after and during Hurricane Laura passing through the area.
The active Shelby County Courthouse appears to have made it through the storm unscathed, aside from damage to the sign. Within the same vicinity, there is damage on Houston Street beside the courthouse and next to Raymond Motor Company where a large oak tree has fallen beside the building.
It also appears the tree fell on power lines which has resulted in many on San Augustine Street and the surrounding area losing power.
