A man from Rogersville is in a jail cell in Louisiana, accused of trying to scam people as an apparent "Hurricane Issac" victim.

Police say he claimed to be left homeless by the storm. A local news outlet featured his story, then got a bunch of phone calls saying he was a phony. He was arrested at the TV station.

Charges have not yet been filed.
