HELENE HELP: Cape residents help North Carolina after catastrophic flooding

People from all over the country are flocking to the Southeast US to some of the hardest-hit areas from Hurricane Helene.

FOX 4’s Bella Line spoke with a Cape Coral man who is in Ashville, North Carolina, already helping out and one local business owner will be headed up there soon.

Bowen Bickelhaupt didn’t think twice about helping out. Especially after having gone through Hurricane Ian.

“I’ve been going door to door, just kind of delivering, well, what’s left of the door. It’s sad to say, just delivering water,” said Bickelhaupt.

He says the sites are shocking.

“A lot of people back home right now understand what everybody, including themselves, went through during Ian,” said Bickelhaupt. “I just have to say this, put Ian and Katrina combined, and it’s still not even close to being the same.”

Take a look at these photos Bowen has taken of the aftermath:
