11:15 a.m.: Levee Breached At Industrial Canal

There's been a levee breach at an industrial canal in the Ninth Ward in St. Bernard Parish. When this occurs, water rises rapidly, so residents should be extra alert to the threat of rising water. There are reports of 8 feet of water spilled out because of the breach. There is also heavy street flooding throughout Orleans, St. Bernard and Jefferson parishes. A WDSU crew drove around the city and some streets look like flowing rivers. Also, earlier reports of an apartment collapse in Jefferson Parish are false. It was actually a house that collapsed. -- WDSU.com Web Staff
