SBSO ASKS MOTORISTS TO AVOID AREAS AFFECTED BY TORNADOES

St. Bernard Sheriff James Pohlmann asks motorists to stay away from areas in Arabi that were affected by Tuesday’s tornado.

Areas to avoid include the following streets in the Arabi and Old Arabi areas: Center, Patricia, Schnell, Aycock, Benjamin, Rose, Sidney, Anne, Alexander, Prosperity, Karl and Friscoville.

The Sheriff said there are more than 100 utility trucks in the area with workers from Entergy, Atmos Gas and Cox Cable who are working hard to restore power as quickly as
possible.

“If you don’t have any business in the area, please stay away so we can let these workers do their jobs efficiently and effectively,” Sheriff Pohlmann said. “We don’t need sightseers clogging the area and holding up progress.”
