Two western NC deputies killed by flooding from Tropical Storm Helene

Two deputies in western North Carolina have died, according to the North Carolina Sheriffs’ Association.

One deputy was from the Macon County Sheriff’s Office, and the other was from the Madison County Sheriff’s Office. Both were killed in the raging floodwaters.
