"The residents are missing and presumed dead so, as volunteers, we pretty much take what we like," Woodyard stated. "We (firefighters and emergency assistance personnel) all do it and will sometimes cordon off a rich neighborhood for a few choice hours of 'search and rescue' before we let the residents back in," he added.
