Roman Brown moves part of a wall out of his way as he looks for a friend's medicine in their destroyed home along Seely Drive outside of Hamilton, Mississippi, after a storm moved through the area on Sunday, April 14, 2019.
At least one person was killed and about two dozen others were injured after a suspected tornado struck the Caddo Mounds State Historic Site in East Texas during a Native American cultural event in Alto, about 209km southeast of Dallas. There was widespread damage in Alto, a town of about 1,200, and the school district canceled classes until its buildings can be deemed safe.
It destroyed 55 homes, a church, four businesses, a duplex, and part of the local housing authority building, authorities said. Two people were hospitalised for injuries that were not thought to be life-threatening, while others were treated at the scene, Yezak said. Some people had to be extricated from damaged dwellings.
"We're living, and God has blessed us," Scott, a retired manager for a grocery store meat department, said Sunday as neighbours helped him salvage his belongings. Media sources reported several homes and businesses were damaged after an apparent tornado struck Shelby, Ohio, Sunday about 4pm.The Richland County Emergency Management Agency reported about a half-dozen homes were damaged and at least six people were taken to a hospital to be treated for storm-related injuries.
