And people are dying. CNN's Chris Lawrence described "many, many" bodies, inside and outside the facility on New Orleans' Riverwalk. "There are multiple people dying at the convention center," he said. "There was an old woman, dead in a wheelchair with a blanket draped over her, pushed up against a wall. Horrible, horrible conditions. "We saw a man who went into a seizure, literally dying right in front of us." People were "being forced to lived like animals," Lawrence said -- surrounded by piles of trash and feces.
