On the morning of Nov. 9, 2022, with waves of rain and wind increasing in frequency and intensity in southeast Florida, close to a dozen homeless people began to gather outside the Delray Beach Library, waiting to catch a Palm Tran fixed-route bus to a shelter where they could weather impending Hurricane Nicole in safety. "I didn't have anywhere to go," said Joshua Nebine, who patiently waited for the bus to arrive with a backpack and a book in hand. "I don't know why people would pass up this opportunity, I've been outdoors for too many storms," John Gormley said to Delray Beach Police Officer Damien Ferraiolo, who was there as the community outreach officer assisting and encouraging the area's homeless population to get to safety. |
