Three killed as wicked weather slams southern Missouri

May 8, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Severe weather that included strong winds and heavy rain has claimed the lives of three people in southern Missouri. And the National Weather Service is looking into reports of tornadoes touching down in various regions of the state.

Two of the victims were a man and a woman in Butler County who were killed when a tree hit their car. A third person lost his life as a result of a heart attack brought on when he was blown out of his home by a possible twister that rumbled through Dallas County.

In addition to the deaths there are numerous injuries from the storms, including an injury to a Southwest Baptist University student in Bolivar who was hurt by flying debris.

There is also plenty of property damage. Among the buildings destroyed is Fair Grove High School. Earlier this year storms ripped the roof off an elementary school in Fair Grove.
