City officials said 750 tons of debris were removed from Mid-City canals, including two cars reported missing as Hurricane Katrina barreled down on the Gulf Coast in 2005.
Drainage problems in New Orleans have been explained after two cars were found among other rubble in the city's drainage canals.
This seemed to be confirmed by one of the car owners, who reported his 2002 Mazda 626 missing on August 29, 2005, the same day Hurricane Katrina made landfall. According to NOLA.com, the owner didn't know the car's whereabouts until last week, when it was removed from the drainage canal along with 750 tons of debris.
A police report on the Mazda does not explain how the car or the rest of the debris got into the drainage canal. It's probable that the winds from Hurricane Katrina pushed the items into the canal through a large opening, as they were found no more than 250 feet from an open-air portion of the canal.
