"A rescue that was supposed to take place never happened."
1:55 P.M. - (AP): "Even as crews in New Orleans try to find and count the corpses that are decaying in the 90-degree heat, reports of the extent of the tragedy are starting to emerge.

A Louisiana congressman says more than 100 people died at a warehouse along a New Orleans dock. Congressman Charlie Melancon says they died as they waited for rescuers to take them to safety.

And a state lawmaker says 30 people died at a flooded-out nursing home just outside New Orleans.

Nita Hutter says the staff had left the residents behind in their beds.

A rescue that was supposed to take place never happened."
