Flagler County

Volunteers in Flagler County are trying to gather things like gloves, masks, and protective gowns to help local first responders weather the Covid19 crisis.

An employee with Flagler County Public Schools has tested positive for COVID-19, the district says.

As a precautionary measure, a second Flagler Beach Officer has been isolated at home since last week as well, due to that officer having direct contact with the officer that tested positive.

Flagler County officials are asking residents with spare personal protection equipment (PPE) to donate the items at a drive-up collection site located at Rymfire Elementary School in Palm Coast on Wednesday and Thursday. They are specifically looking for masks, surgical gowns, and gloves.

The beaches are closed, picturesque tree-lined trails are shut down. 

This measure is effective immediately in Palm Coast and aims to limit the spread of COVID-19 in the city.

The beach closure went into effect at 6 a.m. on Monday.

Deputies said that several toll attendants said that the man would often try to flash a badge to avoid paying.

Officials in Flagler County said there are no confirmed cases of coronavirus in the county and no individuals were being monitored as of Wednesday.

Deputies said that they found sewage discharged on the ground, a rotting ceiling and wall, and mold and filth covering the children's bedrooms in the house.
