FARGO, N.D. — Police in Fargo, N.D., have ordered dozens of homes evacuated because of a breach in flood protection as the Red River topped 12 metres.
The Fargo Forum reports the evacuation was ordered early Friday for all houses in a crook of the river. Authorities say there is an immediate threat of rising flood water, and residents are being told to head west.
The river, which flows south-to-north, is rising towards its projected crest of more than 13 metres by Saturday afternoon.
