Very odd: Katrina rescuer is sued by boat owner.
A Broadmoor man who said he rescued more than 200 residents after
commandeering a boat during the flood after Hurricane Katrina is being
sued by the boat's owner for taking it "without receiving permission."Mark Morice, who by the Wednesday after the storm said he "couldn't
get more than a block or two without people screaming to me for help,"
took the boat "out of necessity. . . . I did it for my neighbors." ...The lawsuit contends that boat owner John M. Lyons Jr. suffered his
own distress, in the form of "grief, mental anguish, embarrassment and
suffering . . . due to the removal of the boat," as well as its
replacement costs.
