'We all came out of our apartments. Everybody was nervous and scared. We don't know what was going on. We all went to the basement to make sure that we were safe, and called 911,' Sonya Smith said.
Strong winds sent lots of people in the Chicago area to seek shelter Monday afternoon and evening, but people in a three-story apartment building in the 600 block of South 24th Avenue in Bellwood could not find refuge in their own home.
A woman who lives on the top floor, and asked to remain anonymous, said when the roof caved in, the wood and heavy shingles came crashing right into her kitchen, trapping her underneath the table.She and everyone else in that building is now temporarily homeless. Once the storm passed, the destruction was evident, not at that apartment building, but down the street.
