FLORENCE, S.C. (AP) - Dozens of people have been left looking for places to live after a South Carolina motel was shut down following an inspection.

The city notified the owner and residents earlier this month that the building was unsafe. Some of the violations listed include electrical issues, a faulty fire alarm system and water leaking from ceilings.
