(1,712 posts)A very few reputable media are saying that a Holiday Inn appears to have been hit, but that is all. No "mass casualty" language except on some sensationalist sites. Wait and see... Good luck, folks!

(4,608 posts)"Mass casualties reported". Thought I misheard. Said again, "casualties reported". Later had someone on site saying same but situation was chaotic and they cut away. Still later on KMOV interviewed someone in St Charles saying it "looks like a war zone". Haven't heard any such reports anywhere else.
(KMOV is local NBC forecast.)

(36,227 posts)KMOV: There are no casualties at the Earth City, MO Holiday Inn. May actually be the Holiday Inn Express in Riverport. ???

May be a misunderstanding ... @trmyhre : Earth City "@mbushksdk: The fire dept set up a command post at the Holiday Inn for a "mass casualty" contigency..NOT for mass casualties."
