NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV/Gray News) – Families whose loved ones died at a Tennessee plastic factory during flooding from Hurricane Helene say they were recently hit with a “slap in the face” from the company when they received fast food gift cards. Flooding from the hurricane hit the Impact Plastics factory in eastern Tennessee on Sept. 27 and killed six workers. Lawsuits filed against the company say that the deaths were preventable, claiming that employees had asked to leave work but were told no.
