Puerto Rico town's desperate plea for help is finally answered
These pictures are so incredibly heartbreaking.
Help finally arrived to a town in Puerto Rico after a viral photograph showed just how badly supplies were needed.
The words "S.O.S. Necesitamos Agua/Comida," which translates to "we need water and food," were written on the pavement of the small town of Humacao. The image was taken on Sunday and has been shared widely on Twitter. Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló saw the SOS image on social media and decided to take action and deliver help himself.
With the help of the National Guard, the island's governor was able to deliver a complete shipment of supplies to the people of Humacao on Wednesday.
