The whole Katrina incident was a nightmare, so many crimes committed during and after the ordeal.

Officers Ronald Mitchell and Ray Jones were patrolling the area where thousands had sought refuge and were later stranded when resident Danny Brumfield tried to flag the police down, according to the indictment. Brumfield either jumped on the car's hood or was struck by the vehicle, according to the indictment, and Mitchell shot Brumfield.
Mitchell claimed he shot and killed Brumfield after he lunged at him with a "shiny object" and testified that he thought Brumfield was armed with a knife.... Source 9o

Puerto Rico acknowledges much higher death toll from Hurricane Maria: 1,427 fatalities, up from official 64. The acknowledgement of greater fatalities is significant because it places Hurricane Maria in the category of historic deadly hurricanes, such as Hurricane Katrina, which claimed 1,800 lives after slamming into the Gulf Coast in 2005.
