Many Ahrweiler residents say they received no warning
DW political correspondent Benjamin Alvarez spoke to residents of hard-hit Ahrweiler, and said many of them did not receive warning from authorities before the flooding. We have talked to several people here on the ground and while some of them told us they heard an alarm from firefighters, we talked to a lot of them who told us that they did not get any alarm from local authorities, firefighters or police, he said. Alvarez said some residents instead received calls from family members who told them to immediately leave their homes .

My personal favorite has been lawyer cat, the lawyer who showed up to Zoom court with a cat filter on his face and had to explain to a judge, I m not a cat.
