Were you affected by Hurricane Michael ? Text , iMessage or WhatsApp your videos , photos and stories to CNN when it 's safe : 347-322-0415 ( CNN ) The devastation left by Hurricane Michael in several states is still coming into focus , with coastal Florida cities destroyed beyond recognition , and homes , businesses and agriculture torn or swamped from Georgia to Virginia . More than 1 million customers were left without electricity , and emergency officials have no access to many towns . The US death toll has risen to at least 17 -- including five in Virginia and eight in Florida -- and it 's expected to climb . `` I expect the fatality count to rise today and tomorrow as we get through the debris , '' Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Brock Long said Friday morning . Hurricane Michael - Michael devastates Florida Panhandle - Damage in Georgia , the Carolinas and Virginia - Live updates - Before and after images in Mexico Beach - Evacuees and survivors stunned by destruction - Aerial imagery lets evacuees check on properties - Hospitals in storm-hit areas evacuate their patients - Their store 's grand opening was this week . Michael left it in ruins - Family awaits word on loved ones who 've gone quiet - Florida 's Mexico Beach is in tatters - The damage in pictures - The strongest hurricane to hit continental US since 1992 - How you can help Michael , which smacked Florida 's Panhandle as one of the most powerful hurricanes to hit the United States , left Virginia 's coast as a post-tropical low early Friday -- and its trail of destruction will take weeks to take into account . Sen. Bill Nelson called the devastation left by Michael `` the worst destruction that the Panhandle has seen for however long that I 've been living . It 's akin to Hurricane Andrew in 1992 where everything was leveled . '' Aerial footage shows coastal cities in the Panhandle , like Mexico Beach , wiped out . Search teams used dogs as they combed the area for people killed or trapped in debris . One death was reported in Mexico Beach -- that of an elderly man found alone , Mayor Al Cathey said . The man 's name has not been released , but authorities said his body was found several hundred yards away from his home . City manager Tanya Castro said Mexico Beach wo n't be up and running for 12 to 18 months . Nelson said there are not enough resources -- food , shelter and water -- for those in Mexico Beach who stayed and for those residents returning . In Panama City , he said `` there 's going to be a period of time that it 's difficult to get supplies in . '' Dawn Vickers rode out the storm in Mexico Beach , but her house and vehicles were demolished . Without cell phone service or transportation , she has been taking shelter in one of the few condos left standing , invited by someone she met at what 's left of a gas station . `` This has been the worst nightmare I 've ever been through in my life , '' she told CNN on Friday . A psychiatric hospital in Florida is isolated after downed trees blocked roads around Chattahoochee , and a tree caused a water line to break . The facility is running on power generators , and helicopters have delivered food and water , the state 's Department of Children and Families said . Key developments • No electricity : At least 1.15 million customers in seven states are without power , including 383,000 in Virginia , 365,000 in North Carolina and 301,613 in Florida . • 17 killed : Eight people have died in Florida , including three fatalities announced Friday in Jackson County , north of Apalachicola . One of those deaths was due to debris , authorities said , and circumstances of the other two deaths were not immediately known . Five people died in Virginia . Four of those drowned , and the fifth was a firefighter who died in a storm-related crash on Interstate 295 in Hanover County , officials said . Three people in North Carolina and a child in Georgia also died . • Severe crop damage : Georgia officials are receiving reports of damage to pecan , cotton , vegetable and peanut crops . `` For me the cotton crop is as bad as it gets . I was picking three bale cotton ( this week ) ; today it is gone , '' cotton farmer and state Rep. Clay Pirkle said . `` Ca n't tell the difference between what I 've picked and what I have n't . '' • Poultry industry : Georgia 's Department of Agriculture said it received reports that 84 chicken houses -- estimated to hold more than 2 million chickens -- were destroyed in the storm . • Public health emergency declared in Georgia : The move will help ensure those who rely on Medicare and Medicaid have access to the care they need , US Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said . Flooding in the Carolinas and Virginia The rapid-moving rainfall from Michael triggered flash floods in parts of Virginia and the Carolinas , including areas threatened by swollen rivers during Hurricane Florence . Hundreds of residents were rescued Thursday from cars , apartments and homes flooded by rushing water . President Donald Trump tweeted his sympathy for people affected by the storm , saying , `` People have no idea how hard Hurricane Michael has hit the great state of Georgia . I will be visiting both Florida and Georgia early next week . We are working very hard on every area and every state that was hit - we are with you ! '' In Virginia , the Roanoke River jumped its banks and flooded nearby homes and businesses . Cory Patirlo , who lives near the river , said the impact was unexpected . It was the first time he had nearly 2 feet of water in his home . `` I 'm gon na be sleeping in my van , with my dogs . '' Video that Trina Lockhart posted on Twitter showed drivers making their way cautiously though a flooded Roanoke street Thursday afternoon . In the southern Virginia city of Danville , floodwaters turned the Grove Park neighborhood into a virtual lake Thursday , and firefighters checked on a nearly submerged car , photos taken by Jim Heffinger show . The water receded within hours in some areas , and cleanup was underway Friday . Some people are expected to remain in shelters through the weekend as river levels go down . In North Carolina , Gov . Roy Cooper said first responders rescued nearly 100 people and evacuated many more this week in the face of flash flooding . Fallen trees have left hundreds of primary and secondary roads closed , he said . Florida residents return to broken homes Thousands of residents in the Florida Panhandle are slowly returning to their homes and discovering that everything or almost everything they owned has been reduced to rubble . Linda Clarke gasped repeatedly at the sight of her once new home in Shell Point Beach -- now severely damaged . `` But you know what ... it 's just stuff , it 's just stuff , '' she told her husband , Raoul , as they walked through the ruins . `` It 's just stuff we can replace . '' There is not much left of what used to be the parish hall of St. Dominic Catholic Church in Panama City . Despite the destruction , the Rev . Luke Farabaugh and his congregation celebrated Mass on Thursday . `` Things , we can replace , '' Farabaugh said on CNN 's `` Erin Burnett OutFront . '' `` We 've seen a lot of signs of hope . ... I 've been telling people ... to have hope . `` Hope is that even if the storm does come , even if I lose my car , my house , my family , even if I lose my life , blessed be God , '' he said . `` Our reward is n't just in this life but in the life to come . So we 're just trying to give people hope at this point . '' In Mexico Beach , Councilwoman Linda Albrecht learned through online news video that her home was gone . `` Everything in my house , it was almost like it was pushed back with a bulldozer , '' she said `` Mexico Beach needs your prayers , '' Albrecht said of the town of about 1,200 people . `` It 's not the Mexico Beach we know . '' But there are signs of recovery . Delta Airlines said it resumed all operations at airports impacted by Hurricane Michael , including Panama City Airport . The City of Tallahassee reported that 90 % of the traffic lights in the city were back online Friday and that power had been restored to 38,000 customers . Several businesses in the city have reopened , including Walmart , Target and various gas stations . On St. George Island , a 28-mile-long and 1-mile-wide island off the Panhandle , a few dozen people did n't evacuate and as the storm raged , those who stayed were surrounded by oncoming water . Security camera video shows water creating its own current in the streets of one neighborhood . `` There were a few points and times when I thought it could happen , that I could die , '' said Tiara Walker , who stayed in an apartment on the island . `` There was a point in time where I thought the roof was going to fly away , so I flipped a couch over and just tried to prepare for the worst situation . '' ' A freak accident ' Sarah Radney saw trees falling down all around her grandparents ' home when Hurricane Michael roared over Georgia . She was safe until a carport came crashing through the roof , killing her . `` It was just a freak accident , I never heard of anything like that , '' said her father , Roy Radney . Sarah , 11 , had just started the sixth grade and joined the drama club and the band . Her father says she loved playing the trumpet , acting and singing . A man who died when a tree fell on a home near Greensboro , Florida , has been identified as Steven Sweet , 44 , according to Lt. Anglie Hightower , the spokeswoman for the Gadsden County Sheriff 's Office . CNN 's Anderson Cooper said Friday on `` AC360 '' that Sweet managed a local car dealership . His wife , Gayle Sweet , was with him when he died . `` He 's one of a kind , so kind he 'll help anybody . Always giving money to people at the stop sign and stuff . He would help anybody , '' Gayle Sweet said of her husband . Three others died in Gadsden County , Hightower said . Authorities did not discuss the circumstances of their deaths , but their bodies have been taken to the medical examiner 's office to determine the cause of death . In North Carolina , a 38-year-old man died when a large tree fell on his vehicle Thursday on US 64 east of Statesville , Iredell County Fire Marshal David Souther said . Cooper also said Friday that firefighter Lt. Brad Clark , 43 , was killed when a tractor trailer lost control on a rainy highway and hit his truck in Hanover County , Virginia . A colleague said he loved the military , loved his family and loved the fire service dearly . Two people also were killed Thursday night in Marion , North Carolina , when their vehicle struck a tree that had fallen because of high winds , said Adrienne Jones , deputy director for the McDowell County Emergency Medical Services . In Nottoway County , Virginia , state police and local authorities were searching for a missing motorist , said Jeffrey Stern , the director of the Virginia Department of Emergency Management Agency . Virginia State Police Superintendent Col. Gary Settle said crews recovered a vehicle but not the person known to be in it . Hundreds of people have been rescued from the debris , and authorities fear the toll could climb higher as search-and-rescue efforts continue . Lack of resources Sen. Nelson said Friday on `` AC360 '' that Mexico Beach does not not have enough shelters , water or food . Nelson said Panama City was `` a city in the dark . '' A cavalry of utility trucks arrived Friday in Bay County , Florida , according to post from the Panama City Beach Government Facebook page . The Federal Emergency Management Agency approved individual assistance families in for Jackson , Liberty , Calhoun and Gadsden counties Friday according to a press release from Florida Gov . Rick Scott 's office . The approval expands the individual assistance program — the original major disaster declaration made individual assistance available in five Florida counties : Bay , Franklin , Gulf , Taylor , Wakulla . Jackson County Emergency Management Director Rodney Andreassen said the county is hoping to get two or three trailers worth of food and water from FEMA but had not yet received them . A distribution center set up at a Walmart in Jackson County handed out food for a few hours Friday and will be open again Saturday . A Red Cross shelter with food and water has also been set up at Marianna High School The impact of climate change on storms Michael 's strength may reflect the effect of climate change on storms . The planet has warmed significantly over the past several decades , causing changes in the environment . Human-caused greenhouse gases in the atmosphere create an energy imbalance , with more than 90 % of remaining heat trapped by the gases going into the oceans , according to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration . While we might not get more storms in a warmer climate , most studies show storms will get stronger and produce more rain . Storm surge is worse now than it was 100 years ago , thanks to the rise in sea levels . And unless the rate of greenhouse gas emissions changes , hurricanes are expected to intensify more rapidly in the coming decades , the scientific research group Climate Central said .

SC Public Radio News - A judge in South Carolina set a $ 150,000 bond for a small-town police officer charged with voluntary manslaughter in the shooting death of a man who investigators said led her on a high-speed chase after running through a stop sign . Hemingway police officer Cassandra Dollard was released from jail less than two hours after the bond hearing . Investigators say Dollard shot Robert Junior Langley early Sunday as he tried to climb out the passenger door after crashing his car . Investigators sat Dollard told them she feared for her life , but also said she did n't see a weapon in Langley 's hands .

A prosecutor said in court Wednesday that Kennedy told deputies after the crash that he had taken a `` deep draw '' from a vaping device and felt its effects while driving .

The warrant is the first indication that marijuana is part of the prosecution 's felony charge . - A court has allowed federally funded family planning clinics to continue to make abortion referrals for now .

Trump calls Clinton a ‘ bigot ’ at surreal rally with U.K . Independence Party leader JACKSON , Miss . — As he seeks to make inroads with African-Americans and other minority voters , Donald Trump dramatically escalated his rhetoric against rival Hillary Clinton , accusing her of being a “ bigot ” who does not truly care about blacks and Hispanics . “ Hillary Clinton is a bigot who sees people of color only as votes , not as human beings worthy of a better future , ” the GOP presidential nominee declared at a rally here Wednesday night . “ She ’ s going to do nothing for African-Americans . She ’ s going to do nothing for the Hispanics . She ’ s only going to take care of herself , her husband , her consultants , her donors . These are the people she cares about. ” Trump ’ s accusation , delivered before a overwhelmingly white audience in a heavily Republican state , was a variation of a line he ’ s been using over the last week . Beginning with a speech last week outside Milwaukee , the GOP nominee has repeatedly condemned “ the bigotry of Hillary Clinton ” while arguing that Democrats have failed minority voters and taken them for granted . The sharp jab punctuated an unusual and somewhat surreal rally here in the Deep South , where the celebrity businessman was joined onstage by Nigel Farage , the outgoing leader of the United Kingdom ’ s Independence Party . Farage was an architect of the successful “ Brexit , ” in which the U.K. voted earlier this summer to leave the European Union . Trump has repeatedly likened his own campaign to Brexit in arguing for “ peaceful regime change ” in the U.S. on Election Day . The mogul recently predicted that he would soon be known by the moniker “ Mr . Brexit. ” Inviting the British politician to the stage at his Wednesday rally , the GOP nominee called it an “ honor ” to stand with Farage , who all but endorsed Trump as he likened his own campaign against the European establishment to the brash developer ’ s insurgent bid for the White House . Speaking to audience members who appeared somewhat baffled at his presence , Farage spoke of how he and allies overcame opposition from the political establishment and even a set of foreign leaders that included U.S. President Obama . As the crowd here booed , Farage pointedly accused Obama of talking down to the British . “ He treated us as if we were nothing , ” Farage said . “ One of the oldest functioning democracies in the world , and here he was telling us to ‘ vote remain. ’ ” As Trump stood over his shoulder , a smile on his face , Farage pointedly did not endorse Trump — but he came very , very close . “ I could not possibly tell you how you should vote in this election , ” he said . “ But I will say this , if I was an American citizen , I wouldn ’ t vote for Hillary Clinton if you paid me ! ” Farage urged Trump supporters to take advantage of the “ fantastic opportunity ” they face in November . “ You can go out . You can beat the pollsters . You can beat the commentators . You can beat Washington . And you ’ ll do it by doing what we did for Brexit in Britain . We had our own people ’ s army of ordinary citizens , ” he said . “ Anything is possible if enough people are prepared to stand up against the establishment. ” Walking back to the podium , Trump nodded , calling Election Day a chance for the country to “ re-declare ” its independence . “ It ’ s time to recapture our destiny , ” he said . Hillary Clinton responds to Trump calling her a bigot : `` He is taking a hate movement mainstream '' https : //t.co/xyYjhBKRms — Anderson Cooper 360° ( @ AC360 ) August 25 , 2016 For her part , Clinton responded to Trump ’ s “ bigot ” attack during a Wednesday night interview with CNN anchor Anderson Cooper . “ It reminds me of that great saying that Maya Angelou had , that , ’ When someone shows you who they are , believe them the first time , ’ ” the Democratic nominee said . “ And Donald Trump has shown us who he is . And we ought to believe him . He is taking a hate movement mainstream. ” Clinton added that Trump was “ someone who has questioned the citizenship of the first African-American president — who has courted white supremacists , who has been sued for housing discrimination against communities of color , who attacked a judge for his Mexican heritage , and promised a mass-deportation force. ” She said she would “ have more to say about this ” in a Thursday speech in Reno , Nev .

Changing the narrative : Vicksburg police chief , shooting victim ’ s mother speak on youth gun violence Published 4:00 am Saturday , August 7 , 2021 This is the fourth and final story in a series from The Vicksburg Post investigating youth gun crimes in Vicksburg and Warren County . To read the third story in the series , click here . Vicksburg mother Toni Graves ’ world turned upside down on Oct. 19 , 2020 , when her 20-year-old son Karl Michael Singleton was gunned down in his home on Enchanted Drive . However , the grieving mother got one step closer to justice for her child this week . The Vicksburg Police Department and Chief Penny Jones announced Friday that arrest warrants were issued for at least one suspect in connection with Singleton ’ s murder . Speaking in a press conference , a tearful Graves was candid about the personal toll gun violence had on her family — on her son , whom she and Jones both said was still a child . “ I just want y ’ all to know this hurts me so bad . I don ’ t know why . I ’ ll never know why , but I know he ’ s not here with me anymore , ” Graves said . “ And I ’ ll tell you one thing : God gives you life , but it ’ s not your job to take it . “ This is ridiculous . It ’ s senseless . Just put the guns down . That ’ s all I ask . I told my son all the time — I had many sleepless nights , but I ’ m not going to give up on him . I refuse to because I ’ m his mother , ” she said . Operation Blitz This is the latest in a string of investigations , arrests and weapon confiscations as part of Operation Blitz , a crime-fighting initiative announced last month by Mayor George Flaggs Jr. Jones said she takes Operation Blitz seriously , and that thus far , her department has been successful in getting guns out of the hands of those who intend to do harm — including at least 10 juveniles . “ One of the main targets was guns . We ’ ve been having such a problem with break-ins , and getting into vehicles , and I ’ m so sad that people don ’ t realize how serious it is when they don ’ t lock their car , ” Jones said . “ That ’ s one way these kids are able to get guns , is out of cars. ” The reason children and teenagers carry guns , she said , is simple : It ’ s a status symbol . But the problem happens when they steal firearms or carry them with criminal intent . By increasing the police department ’ s presence on the streets , Jones said , they are able to send a message to adolescents and their parents . “ One of the things I wanted to do with Operation Blitz is , I wanted us to get out there for the young folks to say , ‘ Uh-oh , they ’ re out tonight , ’ or ‘ Something ’ s happening y ’ all , go home , ' ” she said . “ As far as the parents are concerned , we can ’ t be your child ’ s mom and daddy . In order for us to make this work , the parents are going to have to work with us. ” Gang Presence in Vicksburg While Singleton ’ s death is not confirmed to be gang-related , Jones did say a number of youth gun arrests are . She also confirmed the presence of “ at least 10 ” gangs in Vicksburg but admitted that they were not as serious as in other , larger cities . “ Oh there are a lot of gangs in Vicksburg . I don ’ t know why ( anyone ) would say that there aren ’ t , ” Jones said . “ I know some of the gang members here — they are influenced by the older guys who are really wanting to be a part of gangs like the Vice Lords , the Bloods , the 4 Corner Hustlers. ” Change the narrative Often , when the police department catches a juvenile breaking the law , Jones said parents are angry with officers for arresting their child . The mentality must shift , she said , explaining that it takes strong adult figures to help guide impressionable children on the right path and help them make better decisions . “ I ’ m not going to blame it on the parents all the time , but sometimes you can blame the parents . Some of the arrests we ’ ve made during Operation Blitz , we have had some parents who were very angry , because we caught their child with a gun , ” she said . “ They won ’ t accept responsibility for what their child has done . But when they go out there and they do something they ’ re not supposed to be doing , or when they ’ re seeking help for their child , then they need us . “ But if we can work together as a team , parents and police , we can change the narrative as to what ’ s going on. ” Those figures aren ’ t always present in the home , so Jones said she is working with the Warren County Youth Court to start a mentorship program specifically targeting teenage boys at risk of delinquency . “ Children are the future ” For Jones , the idea of halting youth gun crime in Vicksburg directly correlates with her retirement . “ When I think about juveniles and crimes and guns , I think about retirement . I think about Whitney Houston , when she said , ‘ I believe that children are the future . Teach them well and let them lead the way . Show them all the beauty they possess inside . Give them a sense of pride to make it easier. ’ “ At some point , I ’ m not going to be in this position , ” she said . “ And the person who ’ s going to be sitting in this chair may be one of those kids that I dealt with in the past. ” Operation Blitz Phase Two As anti-police sentiments continue to grow across the nation , Jones said Phase Two of Operation Blitz is meant to combat that mentality . From neighborhood block parties with officers , to hosting performance opportunities for local children , VPD will soon be further integrating itself into the community . “ We ’ re going to have guys walking in the neighborhoods , knocking on doors , ” Jones said . “ ‘ Hey , I ’ m Officer So-and-so . We ’ re walking through the neighborhood and wanted to know if you have any problems or if there ’ s anything we can do for you all . ' ” She also expressed interest in resuming coordination of neighborhood watch programs , and the Citizen On Patrol program , which gives participants an opportunity to walk in the footsteps of a police officer . The personal toll of gun violence Vicksburg has recorded two homicides this year , both with juveniles who stand accused of murder . While Jones said her officers are able to push aside their personal feelings while on the job , she didn ’ t deny the emotional toll working the cases had on her and other officers . “ We ’ re human . If you cut me , I ’ m going to bleed , ” she said . “ When things like that happen , we have to get into work mode in order to make the investigation work . We were all in work mode when the incident happened , but we ’ re talking side-by-side saying , ‘ I ’ m hurt . I ’ m hurt for the parents . I ’ m hurt for the child . ' ” Like the death of Singleton , Jones said , the two 2021 homicides were preventable . In addition to bringing justice to the families of victims , Friday ’ s press conference served another purpose : a stark warning . “ For some of these parents who are having problems , I hope that this is an eye-opener for a lot of parents as well as children , ” Jones said . “ We mean business . We want to get these guns off the street and get these children on the right track . He was 20 years old . Still a child . ”
