An update to let everyone know that Davis’s parents have been located. Word came to the newsroom through Davis’s brother in Florida that Mom and Dad Nolan are at a relocation center in Baton Rouge. The Assignment Editor was able to relay the message to Davis. He, Neil and Todd are racing to Baton Rouge now. More details as they become available. Thank you for all your kind thoughts and prayers.
Justin adds:
If you didn’t happen to catch the News 2 This Morning live report from Davis and Neil as they approached New Orleans (and before they heard the news of Davis’s parents) you should head to the News 2 website and check it out. You can feel and see the worry in Davis’s face - I can’t imagine what the 12 hour trip southward must have felt like. We’re all relieved and happy for him.
We’ve received at least 100 e-mails in the Storm Center yesterday and today from viewers telling Davis that his parents were in their thoughts and prayers. Thank you - you’re the best!
