Baton Rouge Locals Use Boats to Maneuver in the Floodwaters

At least three people were killed after Louisiana was hit with heavy rains and flooding on Saturday and Sunday, August 13 and 14. Over 17 inches of rain fell on parts of the state on Saturday alone, and over a thousand locals were rescued.

These videos show locals gingerly driving through Central and Baton Rouge on Friday, before the flooding got worse and they resorted to maneuvering around the locality on boats. Credit: YouTube/Chris Shalohm
