WBFF Fox 45 :: Woman's Intuition Leads to Rescue of Her Sisters, Trapped by Storm Damage
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Out of the storm stories we're hearing from around the mid-state, we're getting some incredible stories of survival. Take Ivory Oliver for example. During the storm, Oliver became concerned about her two sisters and her 10-year-old niece who live on 12th Avenue North in North Nashville.  She decided to go check on them and found a tree had landed on their home! The family was trapped inside.  She removed an air conditioning unit and pulled the women and the girl out one by one. One of the women later said they heard tornado sirens coming from TSU and moved out of the living room just in the nick of time.Woman's Intuition Leads to Rescue of Her Sisters, Trapped by Storm Damage

Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert at country fest
May 24, 2013 18:26 GMT

By CHEVEL JOHNSON Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- The sounds of country music take over the City of Baton Rouge as the Bayou Country Superfest brings some of the genre's biggest names to LSU's Tiger Stadium for a Memorial Day holiday jamfest.

Headlining Saturday are Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Darius Rucker and Aaron Lewis, the former frontman for rock band Staind. The two-day festival concludes Sunday with performances by Zac Brown Band, Luke Bryan and The Band Perry.

Festival producer Quint Davis says the talent and free fan fest held before the nightly concerts help to entice attendees. In its fourth year, the festival drew 75,000 people last year.

Visit Baton Rouge executive vice president Renee Areng says Superfest has encouraged people to travel to Baton Rouge on a traditionally sleepy weekend.
