Firemen from Penderlea hosed off a stretch of North Carolina highway after receding floodwaters from Hurricane Florence left behind a carpet of dead fish.

First responders on Saturday, Sept. 22, came across a mass of fish carcasses strewn across a portion of Interstate 40 near Wallace, North Carolina, exposed by falling water levels a week after the hurricane-turned-storm made landfall and sparked massive flooding.
