PHIL CAMPBELL, Alabama — Several piles of tornado debris remain in Phil Campbell, and one is a concern to the town’s police chief.

Official cleanup efforts in Phil Campbell ended June 23. Property owners could have consented for cleanup crews to enter private property, but some had moved away. One owner had died.

Police Chief Merrell Potter says removal is getting down to the final stages with glass, boards and other minor debris remaining.

One plot owned by Larry Carpenter, owner of LCS Custom Gun Work, is of concern. Potter says that of the 300 guns in the shop, only 106 were recovered.

Potter says he recently found a couple of rifle stocks and barrels in the field. A phone message left at the last number the City Hall has for Carpenter was unanswered.
