State OES has learned that trapped victims on the Gulf Coast are calling
family, friends, loved-ones, or anyone they can get a call out to in
California asking for someone to rescue them. These requests need to go
immediately to the US Coast Guard's Rescue Line at (800)-323-7233 and
immediate assistance will be sent.
It is a legitimate national 800 number that people can call if they have
information about an individual who is trapped in the hurricane area.
