725 Rescued in Milton Aftermath: Disaster Area Looks ‘Like It Was an Atomic ***** that Blew It Up’

Coastal residents in Florida are trying to put their lives back together in the wake of Hurricane Milton. At least 16 people are *****, but the ****** toll continues to rise. 

Floridians are still discovering the full extent of Milton’s destruction, and learning stories of survival.

One man was found floating 30 miles off the Gulf Coast, clinging to a cooler to stay afloat. The Coast Guard rescued him after he tried to ride out Milton on his fishing boat in 25-foot high seas.

Milton came ashore Wednesday night south of Tampa as a Category 3 hurricane.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Department was going door-to-door on boats, rescuing more than 725 people. 

Five hundred were rescued from one apartment complex. And a 14-year-old boy was found alive, floating on a piece of fencing.

In Tampa, a mother and son used their fishing boat to help stranded people. She can be heard saying, “These people all need help. Nobody has been here today, and they have animals.”

In Gulf Coast communities from Naples to Venice, some have found their homes ******* under as much as three feet of sand. 

Meanwhile, 38 reported tornadoes damaged hundreds of homes.

On the other side of Florida, in Palm Beach Gardens, a dumpster was picked up by a tornado and thrown onto a house.

At least six people were ******* when a tornado hit a retirement community. 

Rescuer Mike Johnson said, “When I was coming back around, there were people screaming in the trailer park. And two or three of us jumped a ditch to go check it out. One guy was already passed away and it was like a ***** went off right there.”
