Harris County Morgue Overflowing, Needs Big Rig To Store Bodies
HOUSTON (AP) - The county in Texas that has had the most deaths from Harvey says its morgue is close to capacity because of storm-related bodies and deaths that are not related to the flooding.
Tricia Bentley, spokeswoman for the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences says Thursday that funeral homes have been unable to retrieve the bodies in the aftermath of the storm and it has asked for a large refrigerated 18-wheeler to store more of them.
