I hope so too. We have bottled water to drink, will be drawing water to save. Have a generator in the garage and fuel. Wish I had more flashlights though.

Corpus Christi Police had no new information Saturday about a man who was shot Friday by a homeowner after police say he broke into a Southside home.

About 11 p.m., about an hour after Hurricane Harvey made landfall, police responded to the 7100 block of Ficus Court near Yorktown Boulevard where they found a man who had been shot in the head.

According to officers at the scene, the man broke into the residence and was shot by the homeowner. The man was taken to Christus Spohn Hospital Shoreline.

No other major incidents were reported Friday night, he said.

Since Hurricane Harvey’s landfall, there have been some thefts. But Pace said he can’t say for sure where each incident was reported.

There also have been some traffic accidents, but no major accidents.
