MONTGOMERY, Ala. - From monster machinery to simple rakes and gloves, crews could be seen picking up the mess in Montgomery’s Halcyon neighborhood Thursday.“Before this thing happened, we prayed that God would create a circle of protection around our house, not knowing that we actually would be in a tornado,” said resident Rhon Carleton.

It was a frightening experience that neighbors said was made more palatable with the help of first responders.
“We really appreciate the Montgomery fire department, the police department and the sanitation people,” said Carol Carleton. “The response was fantastic.” Crews have already cleared the Carleton’s curb of debris. The family also thanked the mayor for helping coordinating the city’s emergency response.Copyright 2023 WSFA. All rights reserved.
