Montana National Guard launches rescue missions for people stranded by 'significant' flooding
Fox News
Montana National Guard members airlifted a dozen stranded people to safety in separate rescue efforts after raging floodwaters swamped homes and washed out roadways.
The first helicopter rescued two people in Roscoe, Montana, and two more in Fromberg, officials said. At least 200 homes were flooded in Red Lodge and the town of Fromberg.
The second helicopter recovered eight people in Cooke City, the Guard said. The towns of Cooke City and Silvergate, just east of Yellowstone National Park, were also isolated by floodwaters, which also made drinking water unsafe.
