YOU CAN SEE. THERE WE GO. THERE WE ARE. WELL, THE NEBRASKA NATIONAL GUARD IS MOVING INTO NEIGHBORHOODS, CLEANING UP AFTER THE TORNADO OUTBREAK. DOZENS OF SOLDIERS ARE HELPING LAW ENFORCEMENT IN DOUGLAS AND WASHINGTON COUNTIES. KETV NEWSWATCH SEVEN’S ALEX MCLOON IS LIVE IN THE WOODLANDS CROSSING NEIGHBORHOOD, WHERE PEOPLE HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT LOOTING ALEX. YEAH, BILL QUANECIA HUNDREDS OF HOMES ARE EXPOSED ACROSS DOUGLAS AND WASHINGTON COUNTIES AFTER LAST WEEK’S STORMS. BEHIND ME IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, YOU CAN SEE A WEEK AGO, PEOPLE LOST THE ROOFS AND SIDE WALLS TO THEIR HOMES. SO OVER HERE, THE NATIONAL GUARD IS NOW TEAMING UP WITH LOCAL DEPUTIES AND POLICE TO DETER TRESPASSERS AND PREVENT THEM FROM ENTERING THE NEIGHBORHOODS. OFFICIALS HAVE CHECKPOINTS LIKE THIS SET UP IN MULTIPLE SPOTS ACROSS THE COUNTY AREAS. OFFICIALS WILL BE CHECKING DRIVERS FOR PROOF OF RESIDENCE. RESIDENTS SEE THEY’RE ALSO ASKING VOLUNTEERS AND CONTRACTORS TO SHOW PROOF OF BUSINESS. THIS IS HAPPENING ACROSS THREE AREAS HERE AT THE WOODLANDS CROSSING NEIGHBORHOOD, AS WELL AS BENNINGTON LAKES AND THE CARL ROSA NEIGHBORHOOD. MORE THAN 80 SOLDIERS AND AIRMEN ARE NOW ON THE GROUND IN DOUGLAS COUNTY. THE SHERIFF HERE SAYS LOCAL OFFICIALS HAVE PREVENTED WIDESPREAD LOOTING, BUT NEED CONTINUED MANPOWER. WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH PATROL DEPUTIES AS IT IS UNDER NORMAL, NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, AND SO IT’S NICE THAT WE CAN ALLOW ALL OUR PATROL DEPUTIES TO BE ABLE TO HAVE SOME TIME OFF TO RECHARGE ON SOME OF THEIR NORMAL DAYS OFF. LOCAL DEPUTIES AND POLICE HAVE BEEN WORKING AROUND THE CLOCK SINCE FRIDAY’S STORMS TOOK OUT HOMES AND LEFT PEOPLE EXPOSED TO LOOTING, AS WELL AS THE CONCERN FOR GAWKING, SIGHTSEEING FROM PEOPLE WHO DON’T BELONG TO NEIGHBORHOODS BUT ARE STILL TAKING IN THE DEVASTATION. THIS IS A CONCERN THAT OFFICIALS HAVE MOVING. FORWARD WITH THE CLEANUP EFFORT THAT’S EXPECTED TO TAKE MONTHS. MEANWHILE, PATROLS ARE PATROLS, LOCAL OFFICIALS ARE KEEPING UP ON 911 CALLS AND REGULAR DUTIES. SO THAT’S HOW THE NATIONAL GUARD IS HELPING OUT. MEANWHILE, THE NEED IN WASHINGTON COUNTY IS STILL BEING ASSESSED THERE. OFFICIALS EXPECT NATIONAL GUARDSMEN TO MOVE IN SOME TIME OVER THIS WEEKEND. THE METRO OFFICIALS ACROSS BOTH COUNTIES WILL CONTINUE REASSESSING THE NEED FOR THE NATIONAL GUARD. DAY BY DAY. LIVE I
