From CNN's Katrina blog:
Rescue 'ticket'
Posted: 6:24 p.m. ET
CNN's Drew Griffin in New Orleans, LouisianaI am stunned by an interview I conducted with New Orleans Detective Lawrence Dupree. He told me they were trying to rescue people with a helicopter and the people were so poor they were afraid it would cost too much to get a ride and they had no money for a "ticket." Dupree was shaken telling us the story. He just couldn't believe these people were afraid they'd be charged for a rescue.
