🚨 #BREAKING: At least 50 patients and staff are trapped on the roof of Unicoi County Hospital in Tennessee

This is terrifying.

Emergency crews attempted to evacuate people by ambulance and boats, but the water began rising way too quickly and and is moving too rapidly to extract people safely, forcing them up on the roof.

The National Guard is deploying to assist. Pray for these people.
