Report: Shots Fired at Evacuation Choppers

(CNSNews.com) - The worst of human nature remains on display in New Orleans, where the urgent evacuation of the Superdome was suspended Thursday morning, reportedly after shots were fired at (or in the vicinity of) a military helicopter helping with the evacuation effort. Later reports said arson fires were burning outside the Superdome. A Fox News crew near the Superdome said it also was assessing its situation in light of safety concerns, amid growing reports of gunfire and violence. Looters reportedly have made off with guns from various stores in the city and are not hesitating to brandish them or fire them. A number of carjackings were reported overnight.
