"Final Moments" A Hurricane Katrina victim lies dying outside the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans Thursday, September 1, 2005. Louisiana State Police trooper Jason Martel of Troop E in Alexandria came to her aid with an orange, picking her up and away for help, only to have her die moments later in his arms, he said. Starting with an estimated 16,000-20,000 people and estimated to continue through the night, evacuees were walked through the lower level of the Hyatt Regency hotel to awaiting air-conditioned buses that would take them the Houston Astrodome.
