AT 9:43 on the original video { 11:29 in this one} a man pops his head in the door that looks an awful lot like Melton, first pictured in this video at the 1:44 mark. Melton was supposedly unavailable for comment. Same person? Coinicidence? Do all Fire Chiefs look like that up there? You guys decide.

Those people from the town of Lake Lure should be ashamed. There is no good explanation for what they did. This is a perfect example of incompetence. Thankfully the couple was reunited. Prayers for all the people effected by the storm.

DID YOU NOTICE THAT WHILE THE GIRL WAS BEING INTERVIEWED, the assistant fire chief opened the door behind her and looked in the office. At the beginning of the town managers interview ( cut off on this video), she said that he was not available to talk, and he wasn’t there, but look he is there he looked in the room during the interview.

The fact that the man had to hike down and get dragged across the lake tells me that the pilot should have been given the authority to get the man and bring him since 1. the pilot knew exactly where he was located. 2. he would have been rescued immediately and 3. they could have focused on others who needed to be rescued and 4. not had to hike down the cliff and 5. Find the “Rescue crew” who had his wife 6. Be dragged through the raging water. To be 7. Reunited with his wife!!!! They all have been through so much already why the need to put them through more ????? 😢 in a case like this rescuing people should be priority and paperwork should be scrapped in a tragedy like this. 😢😢😢

The two local cops who were there should have told the pilot to go get the husband and told the fire chief to sit down, shut up or go to jail. They, the cops have power to arrest, fire guy? Not so much. When the full story of this storm is written, a lot of people will have a whole load to answer for.

1. Chris Melton: assistant chief of Lake Lure fire and emergency management. "Leave area or I'll have you arrested. (For rescuing elderly people and his co pilot was his son. He stayed with the elderly man. Cops backed Melton up. (Remember this a time sensitive emergency). 2. Private helicopter 1995 Robinson R44 4 seat chopper 3.Pilot name: Jordan Sitem **Owns a steal recycling business in Pageland S.C. Was a reserve law enforcement officer and a volunteer fire fighter. He used his private chopper at his own expense to assist people who were in trouble. He delivered food and water and 4 days prior, he rescued 4 people off the side of a mountain. 4 Co. Pilot and son: Landan Sitem 5 Michigan fire fighters were there and helping Sitem and didn't seem to agree with Melton. Fire fighters helped with radio communication and RaDiO fq and started setting up a landing zone for Sitem. Thanks Michigan.

Maybe this woman was trying to fulfill a dream of starring in her own viral video, and figure if she couldn't become famous, she could at least become infamous. But seriously, sometimes when you screw up like this, the best thing is to admit you screwed up and ask for forgiveness. Did she really think she was going to convince peopled that leaving a man stranded in the mountains was the right thing to do under the circumstances, simply because the rescuer hadn't jumped through the right hoops? You have a guy with a helicopter showing up ready to start saving lives. Even if you have to take special precautions for the 15 minutes needed to complete the rescue mission, it's better than leaving a man stranded. Or better yet, instead of running him off, how about you get him properly registered and work him into the operation.

Perfect example of bureaucracy in action. Most towns reduced or eliminated the bureaucracy in order to help their citizens. Lake Lure leaders should be ashamed, THEY put their citizens in more danger by stalling the relief process. And apparently these folks were passed by multiple times by so-called "approved" SAR helicopters. Also, we noticed the assistant chief open the door and peek in when he was supposedly unavailable. Both of you are pathetic excuses for leaders.

No A.D. That is not egos, That is a man who harbors an evil spirit. People don't believe they are real, But God says they are real. I know for a fact they are real. I pray more people start taking God seriously. There are so few people who understand what is a happening, because they don't seek, and obey God, and it breaks my heart. These truly are the end times. May God bless, and Have mercy on all who are doing so much for those in need.

If I was a pilot, I would have continue my life saving duty no matter what that bossy fire chief said. Too many people think they are more important than others but this was not the time for bossy to act the way he did. Thank You to the pilot that did just What He should have done. GOD Will Bless Him for everything he did!!!

In emergencies as this, citizens need the right to save themselves & others & the gummit workers need to be considered as just other citizens helping & not having the right to take away other citizens rights to help.
