Fellow Main Street store owner Agustin Ortaz Sanchez said he rushed to Angel’s Store when his sister called about the storm Thursday afternoon. He was working at another job in Newton at the time. After talking to firefighters Thursday afternoon, he found it wasn’t safe to go inside his business. “I can’t go inside, I don’t know what happened inside,” he said. Alliant Energy spokesperson Mike Wagner said their time and efforts currently are being spent on “make safe” activities. They are working on ruptured gas lines and de-energizing down power lines. Because there are many unsafe areas across town, they are working to fix the issues before they start to fully assess the situation, he said. The storm did damage substations in town. Those needing assistance should visit the Red Cross at the Marshalltown Fire Department.
