“Trenutno možemo potvrditi smrt 23 ljudi. Ono što nas je posebno šokiralo je razmjer pustošenja koji je tornado izazvao. Ovo još nismo vidjeli, šteta je katastrofalna“, rekao je Jay Jones, šerif okruga Leeja, na istoku Alabame, na granici s Georgijom, piše “Radio Sarajevo“.
Nekoliko ljudi se vode kao nestali, dok su pojedini primljeni u bolnicu, među kojima ima i onih s “veoma teškim povredama“, dodao je šerif.
Prema njegovu mišljenju, tornado je prešao nekoliko kilometara i na svom putu je prouzročio štetu u krugu od 400 metara.
