— At least 21 people died after devastating storms and violent tornadoes scraped the South and Midwest Friday into early Saturday and millions more people were threatened by more severe weather Saturday afternoon.
In Madison County, Alabama, one person died and five were injured overnight, officials said during a news conference Saturday morning. At last 2,100 residents in the pathway of the tornado were affected, he said. Neighborhoods and commercial businesses were flattened, while vehicles flew across the air, the mayor described.
About 100 miles east of Little Rock, the city of Wynne was"basically cut in half by damage from east to west," Mayor Jennifer Hobbs told CNN Friday evening. Meanwhile in Indiana, the storm ripped through Sullivan County, trapping a local official's wife inside their home until their son rescued her. "We need all citizens to stay safe and stay put," Lamb said in a Facebook post overnight."First responders need clear streets so they can tend to affected areas. Please pray for the Sullivan families and public safety personnel."
