Hummer group helps out
Mike Morris, of South Bend, is leading a group of Hummer owners who are providing transportation for the relief efforts.
He founded Hummer Owners Prepared for Emergencies, or HOPE, one year ago. This is their first deployment, says Mike's wife, Belinda Morris.
The group has about 14 Hummers down there from across the country along with members of the German Township Fire Department.
All of them have to be certified in disaster response with the American Red Cross.
Their first full day in Louisiana was Wednesday. They've helped to look for people, deliver supplies and set up a tent-based clinic along an interstate, Belinda Morris said.
Most folks are staying for a week or two, but what about her husband? "That's a good question," Belinda Morris said.
