Most of them did in Cedar Rapids. And if they didn't and the Police/FD/Nat'l Guard came around on the boats and saw them, they were forcibly removed. They did have to go do some rescues Friday and Saturday, mostly of people who either didn't think the flooding would get that bad or didn't want to leave family/pets. But those were minimal - I'd say under 100 people total of the 25,000+ who were asked to evacuate.
