LA PAZ — Marshall County was hit hard by flooding Friday and into Saturday. Emergency management officials are warning about well contamination

The La Paz fire chief was encouraging residents to not use their water until it can be tested for contamination. Or if La Paz residents do need to use water, they should boil it first. The local fire department is hoping to make testing kits and chlorination tablets available to residents by tomorrow morning
