08/28/11 Emergency Evacuations In Glenville And Pemberwick


The low laying areas of Pemberwick and Glenville were hit real hard this morning with flooding from Hurricane Irene.

Residents there received phone calls asking them to immediately evacuate as the high tide approached.

Greenwich Police were dispatched to assist people during the emergency evacuation.
