The death toll from a major storm system that has lashed the south-central and eastern US with devastating winds and powerful tornadoes has risen to 22, with dozens of others injured
In this file photo taken on March 31, 2023, Kris French and his family search through rubble for a video recorder they think captured a direct tornado strike to their business, Champs Car Wash, after a tornado damaged hundreds of homes and buildings in Little Rock, Arkansas. – A major storm system bore down on the US east coast on April 1, 2023, after producing tornadoes and devastating winds across several central states that killed at least 11 people.
The storm had sent multiple tornadoes — some of exceptional size and power — sweeping through Arkansas, where they killed at least five people, the state’s governor said. The National Weather Service had issued tornado warnings for several other states, from as far north as Iowa to the southern state of Mississippi, where a twister last week killed 25 people and caused extensive property damage.
Belvidere Fire Chief Shawn Schadle reported one death and 28 injuries, including five people hospitalized with serious injuries. Overnight tornadoes also claimed one life in Pontotoc County, Mississippi, and one in Madison County, Alabama, emergency officials reported Saturday.Storm moving north
