As the crew was maneuvering around some debris while driving through Metairie in Jefferson Parish they came across a man who had struck a light pole just moments before. The man told KPRC 2 reporters he had hit head hard in the crash. Thankfully, another area resident driving in the area recognized the man and offered him a ride home. KPRC 2 reporters helped the man to the vehicle and saw him off to safety. The National Weather Service Office in New Orleans warned that Ida’s wind speed remains extreme and urged residents not to venture out. The Louisiana Highway Safety Commission also told people to stay off the roads.
