and she said very perfunctorily, daddy left some stuff in the attic. the attic? what attic? i didn't know there was an attic. i remember him talking about, there were times when i wanted to escape the reporters outside my office. so to escape the reporters out of the back way out. but it never occurred to me to ask him, what was the back way. i never asked him that question, idea what she was talking about. you know where dad's office is, right? and i said yes. said, do you know the door behind the door in his office? i said, no. she said, will go out the door behind the door, and you will be in a little hallway, and look to your right and there will be another door, and take that door and go down the stairs. now, the light is out, so be careful. [laughter] the stairs, go down and by the way at the bottom of the stairs, there is a hole in the floor. [laughter] so make sure you don't fall into the hole in the floor. and when you get there, walk around to the left and you will be in a big room. and when you are that room, look over to your left and you will see some staircases

and she said they must be in the attic. the attic? what attic was to mark i didn't know there was an attic i remember him talking about, there was times when i wanted to escape reporters outside of my office and so to escape the reporters i would go the back way out. but it never occurred to me to ask him what was the back way, how did you get out, i have never asked him that question thomas so i, i mean i had no idea what he was talking about. he said you know where that office is, right? and i said yes. she said will the door behind the door to his office? i said no. she said will go out the door behind the door and you will be in a little hallway and look to your right, and there will be another door and take that door and go down the stairs. now the light is out, so be careful. because there is no windows, go down the stairs, and she said and by the way, at the bottom of the stairs, there is a hole in the floor. so, make sure you don't get caught in the hole in the floor. okay.. she said and when you get there walk around to the l

it was explained to me with bhis fing in the attic, it traveled through the attic, along the beams there, dif parts of the building caught fire, and after we saw the north side on fi s, then we a middle section towards 5 street, seen by the gap of the two backside buildings, and the north side -- sorry, the 5th street side caught fire, put that out it looked like, and suddenly back on k street saw fire near 5th, and now we're seeing the backside of the building, what would be 6th street, if that street came rough this far, on k street now on fire and has crumbled in the center and there's flames on at least one side --h no, b sides of the building that the roof is still sort of standing here. i would imagine the idea that collapse might be that portion of the roof is likely. >> all rit. aaron onhe scene for us there in southeast. aaron, thank yas so much. he mayor and chief said, what we have now is a defensive attack. igey are not going in to this fire any longer. they are going to fight it from above aide with hoses and multiple trucks that have surrounded this five-story structure. >>

he don't know people who are trapped with water up in their attics, is not that high, right? >> i don't think we have any more of those. i think we've been able to reach that particular case. and there are other ones where people have gotten on the roof. we went out yesterday. we been working this thing for 48 hours. we have plenty of window of tim time. which of the fire truck out, we took the national guard truck behind it. we took two buses. some of them got out and physically knocked on doors and we've done everything from twitter to facebook to media, everything to get the message out that this was a category four, but the storm surge has really been the damaging part. we have about 300 commercial buildings that have been damaged. about 4200 homes that have been damaged at this point. >> shepard: how many again? >> 4200 homes that we know are probably damaged and about 300 commercial. we had somebody that pulled up and got under a canopy of a commercial building for a few minutes, got in the car, left, came back about 10 minutes later and the whole canopy had collapsed.

and the advice is, yes, do not go to the attic. many people want to head to the highest part of the house. the problem is, and you can probably explain this better, taylor, is that people get trapped up there. >> the water is rising, it gets over the gutter line, at that point you're trapped in the attic. i will go under a doorway to get in there, but i would never recommend to do that. when that water rises, it compresses the oxygen in there. multiple families, a big family in there, you're going to run out of oxygen. you go in there without an axe to either cut through and get yourself to the roof or cut an oxygen hole to keep air flowing in there, you're in a situation where, one, you're potentially going to have the water rise enough to trap you in there so you're going to drown, or two, you'll run out of oxygen and suffocate. >> reporter: and we saw that, unfortunately, play out in new orleans. i want to thank you, taylor fontanelle, for you and your organization. i saw you operate in careen the reason -- in katrina, we've see

and there are no windows up in the attic. looking at the light in the window so they know someone's here. >> you called 911? >> we are waiting for help. >> have you heard back from 911 about what kind of timing or ability for anyone to come and get you? >> no, we haven't. >> all right. we have your address. we will cycle back and see what the first responders know about your situation. you said there are no windows up in the attic where you are? >> right. >> how many of you are there? >> four of us here. >> all right. you know that you have a little bit of a balancing act you will have to deal with here, peggy. you have to be somewhere to get out if you have to get out if water continues to rise. you can't limit yourself to being stuck in the attic. obviously there is no way out. >> no, i see a little window and i may have to break it up. >> right. how high is the water right now in your home? >> it is chest deep. >> say again, peggy? >> it's up to your chest. >> it's up to your chest on the main floor. >> yes. >> all right.

it started in the attic. we don't know how it started or what is fuelling these flames. it's a beautiful calm day, no winds kicking it up, that's for sure. no idea whether any gass fuelling this or why this is so sub bo stubborn. >> we learned every person in the building, 162 units, single and two-bedroom apartments as well, every single person in the building has been accounted for, so so many people in that neighborhood really a sigh of relief wondering how their loved ones are doin >> if you're driving around the area, folks, particularly on hat major artery out of town, 695 headed east, don't do it, it's closed down. this is just next door to that, and pretty close to the navy ard and the baseball stadium too. scott mcfarland has new information at the live desk. scott, what are you hearingnow? >> reporter: some of the new images we are seeing coming in, jim and eerica indichis fire is getting more intense on the east side of the complex. this is our photographers there reporting flames are growing larger in size and amplitude. this is closer to stretches of 69 695.

one trapped in the attic. what else are you seeing? >> nobody, this is one of those lifetime hurricanes for north carolina. last we had was hurricane hazel in 1954 and irene a couple years ago, 7 feet of water, we thought that was quite a bit of water and this one is 101/2 feet. folks are not used to this type of rain. irene came in, half an hour, everybody cleaned up and got back to their lives. this is much different and all the prediction said it was going to be. from the 20 to 40 inches of rain, saturation of the soil, double jeopardy of water coming down, the news and the trend rivers, areas with a lot of rainfall, we are going to get that, saturate soil conditions, a little bit of wind these trees will come down. please stay inside unless you have to be out. we are concerned about power lines. >> your parents talked about hazel and he will talk to your kids about this storm. thanks for being with us this morning. steve: new bern is a beautiful town. mike: one of those hurricanes, the water rose so fast they went into their attic'

and my brother-in-law, larry forrest, was there. >> that night, mike brings larry into the attic. >> want to show you something," and i took him upstairs, and i showed him. it was in a moving box from 1964. >> they didn't even unpack it. >> no, no. >> mike pulled out a piece out of the box, and he said, "it's from the white house." and i go, "talking about d.c. white house?" he goes, "yeah." i was just stunned. if you asked somebody what's the most important building in our history, they're gonna say the white house. and here it was, sitting right next to me. >> did mike ask you to learn more about it for him? >> the more we got talking about it, we said, "let's find out where this came from." >> but it's just talk, and it will be for years. mike's dad dies in 1996, and his mom in 2001. only then do the meister kids begin to deal with any of the old stuff their parents accumulated. did your parents leave a will? >> we had a trust. >> did they specify? >> not in that particular case, no. to clean the house out, to send things to auction, and sell it, it was probably a good three month

is there a way you can go to a second floor in the home or to an attic, make sure the attic had a second getting out so no one gets trapped in an attic. we encourage them to let us know what their situation is like. we tell them to remain calm, not to panic. we will rescue them. again, we're having to be strategic about it. we now have citizen groups who have come out with their own personal water craft offering to help us with these rescues. we are not turning away that help. we are organizing and staging those folks out of our fire rescue department downtown. so anybody who, you know, owns a trailer or a boat and can get us into the water under creative circumstances, we will not turn away that help to get people out of rising flood waters and compromising situations. >> that's really incredible when you think about it. it is not just the official measures, but value tiers putting their own lives on the line to go out and help where they can. i know the conditions are not good. i know you don't like to be out there when the wind speeds are north of 45 miles an hour, 50 miles an hour in

we understand the fire started in the attic.o indication yet of what startedre the obviously, that investigation will be underway. first priority, of course, is to get the blaze out, proving to be a difficult task thieeafternoon. >>g even more flames jumping up now on to the right of your screen. that slanted part of the roof, ityond that, there's more flames there. like the firefighters are playing whk-a-mole, attack in one section, and it pops up in another section. it's now taking over most of the billing, and maybe, perhaps, a good 80% of the roof as we can tell. it appears they watered down very part of the roof of th building, of course, we'll have to get an expert to tell us more about that, but youan see the fire now really taking on some team and gaining mo ining momem although it was doused in the other part of the structure. >> four alarms irw, the burning in southeast, and we had a witness who talked to news 4 moments ago, talked abouteeg more emergency vehicles on the 4th street side of thi building, and more parame

when fire crews arrived it had spread into the attic. >> the problem is the fire got into the attic. once it gets into the attic it can spread very quickly. firefighters had to ventilate the building. they had to cut a hole and do an aggressive firefight on the second floor. >> the fire crews had the fire under control in about one hour. fortunately, no one was hurt. investigators are still looking into what started the fire. >>> a strong warning to the sellers of e cigarettes. keep them out of the hands of children or they will be pulled from the shelves.:a product designed to help adults kick the habit may be encouraging addiction in kids. that is the claim from fda regulators to wednesday issued an ultimatum to san francisco based jewel labs. prove these types of smokes are not getting into the hands of children or the federal government may pull them from store shelves. the problem of underage use is at an epidemic proportion. the legal users say the problem is then the e-cigarette. >> i have friends that have been smoking since they were 14 years old. you need to worry about all

we have reports of people on rooftops and people in attics. people in their homes and water coming into the house. it's a different level of water. and reports of water breeching vehicles. >> how many people do you have out there. what's the size of the crew you have actually deployed? >> i don't know exactly how many people are on the crew. we have our swift water rescue for and we have two additional crews. that are expected to come into craven county. >> based on the forecast and do you have a sense is there a point that's coming up it will be too dangerous for those crews to continue to go out and do the rescues? >> it's already too dangerous. in some areas. we look at things such as the amount of water the speed of the water. the wind. downed trees and electrical issues. really they're out there getting to everyone they can. >> give us a sense, are we talking handful of calls. a dozen. a hundred? what's the wait list. >> just in the craven county center we have logged over 90 calls for assistance. so far. >> how many rescues? >> i don't h

that is really heavy rain, a lot of torn attic activity as possible and atlantic beach did report 35of rain. this will be there all night into saturday and probably most of the weekend. it will be the inland areas that will start to focus on some of the flooding as the rivers are cresting. for us, we will have low clouds, high clouds, the cool continues and you can see the high clouds a little bit to the east bay and low clouds over the bay, all associated with another system that is dropping in, there will be a little enhancement on saturday. if you like this pattern i think you'll like it as well, it might even be two or 30 cooler but that is what we're looking at in september. that would be on saturday. this cool two-mile pattern continues and shows no signs of letting up, any signs of warmer weather, maybe in about a week we will get to the average but there is no sign of september heat or anything like that. that keeps the fire danger down, maybe a little warmer early next week but until then the average on the thames, article september is moving along. >>> new this morning supr

and then my husband pushed the mattress up to the attic and we were there a little bit. the winds started getting really bad so we made a decision to come down out of the attic and put the kids on the top bunk bed. for them to at least try to get some sleep. and hopefully the water didn't rise anymore. and then while we were still waiting, my husband kept hearing people yelling for help. and we tried to go outside. but then the water got above his chest and then he had to come back inside. you can't help anyone. you just hear people yelling and you can't do anything. it is the worst feeling in the world to hear people. you can't do anything. >> so you could hear your neighbors screaming and yelling for help. >> yes. he's like, babe, i can hear people yelling. i have to try to do something. he tried to walk around but the water got too high. my husband is 6'2". the water got to almost above his chest. he had to come back and then make sure the kids were okay. then we called 911 and they were like, well, we can just wait. we didn't get anyone to come get us until with 9:00
