Video: Amory Storm Shelters Damaged

AMORY, Miss. (WCBI-TV) – Leaders in Amory are making repairs to storm shelters there.

Amory Mayor Brad Blalock said Thursday there’s extensive damage to the shelters.

Someone has destroyed the locks there behind the West Amory Community Center. As a result, it caused damage to the inside of the shelter. There is debris inside, someone tried to destroy the seating and someone wrote vulgar words on the inside and outside.

“It does get frustrating to continue to have to put the man hours and expense to maintain these shelters when someone is intentionally defacing them,” Blalock said.

He says this has happened before and anyone who sees anything should contact the Amory Fire Department (662-256-8383) or Amory Police Department (662-256-2676).
