'I caution Bahamians everywhere that chances that we find more persons dead, those chances are real.'
Bahamas Prime Minister Hubert Minnis said Tuesday night there are now seven confirmed deaths from Hurricane Dorian in his country, and that number is expected to rise as the storm moves from the islands and recovery efforts begin.
"We're at the beginning of this," Dames said."This is a very unfortunate occurrence for us. Maybe the worst that we've experienced, certainly in our lifetime." "As we report these things we're taking into account the sensitivity around this...The reality of it all is, unfortunately, we will see more deaths. I can't see any way out of it."
