The death toll from Hurricane Helene across six US states has surpassed 160.
Tennessee state authorities said Wednesday they are investigating the company that owns a plastics factory where 11 workers were swept away by cataclysmic flooding unleashed by Hurricane Helene.
The employees kept working while several asserted that they weren't allowed to leave in time to avoid the impact.
Only five of the eleven were rescued.
Two of them are confirmed dead and are part of a toll across six states that has surpassed 160.
Four others in the factory are still missing since they were washed away Friday in Erwin, where dozens of people were also rescued off the roof of a hospital.
