Statement on August Flooding from Chief Lentz

“During this past weekend, the City of Covington did not suffer any major flooding or damage.  I wish we could say the same for our partners to the west.  Covington Police Officers partnered with Covington Firemen have spent the past three days in the Springfield area helping with rescues, utilizing our high water vehicle.
We are proud to help our partners to the west, and I am so proud of the Covington Police Officers and Covington Firemen that went to Tangipahoa Parish without hesitation.”   – Chief Tim Lentz
