Storms Barrel Through Midwest, Leaving Several Dead [VIDEO]
Tornadoes and thunderstorms rampaged through the Midwest today, killing several people in Illinois and leaving a path of destruction.
The total number of those killed by the storm has not yet been determined, though major outlets report at least four dead.
The storms struck in the early-to-mid afternoon and appeared to strike hardest in central Illinois.
The little town of Washington, Ill. was among the communities hardest hit, Fox News reported. “The entire town of Washington is devastated,” Rep. Aaron Schock (R-Ill.) told Fox News.
NBC news also reported a death in Brookport, Ill., on the Kentucky state line. Also among those killed were an elderly couple who lived in a farmhouse in Nashville, Ill (also in southern Illinois, nearly 200 miles from Washington), NBC reported.
