Video shows flood waters burst through Nebraska hospital

Good Samaritan Hospital surveillance footage shows the flash flood waters burst through the cafeteria


Flash flood waters burst through the cafeteria at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Kearney, Neb., as seen in a video on the New York Post website.

At first, hospital workers can be seen standing on a staircase as they look down on the flooded cafeteria below when a rush of water explodes through a glass doorway through the hospital, sending the workers running.

“When stuff like this does happen, we’re able to quickly migrate, keep everybody safe, and get back to normalcy as soon as possible,” hospital security and safety manager Eric Will told local TV.
