Residents at Brannon Hill Condominiums in DeKalb County, Georgia, are drinking from water hoses and cooking over open fires because water and power outages have left them without running water and electricity.
DeKalb County officials report that 42 code‑enforcement citations have been issued and a hearing is set for November in the Magistrate Court.
The outages are part of broader utility disruptions affecting the county, prompting residents to seek alternative ways to obtain water and prepare meals.
