Oklahoma -Tornados kill five, injure dozens

Tornadoes kill five, injure dozens Washington, May 11 A severe storm front, including several tornadoes,killed five people and injured dozens in the American state of Oklahoma, CNN reported Tuesday. The storm left a path of destruction in at least 13 counties, with numerous houses damaged or destroyed. The small town of Norman, some 35 km south of Oklahoma city, was hit especially hard. More than 30 people from that town alone were treated at hospitals, officials said. Eight are said to be in critical condition. A particularly destructive tornado had formed in the town, leaving behind snapped electricity poles, uprooted trees, heavily damaged buildings and overturned cars. More than 100 homes were almost completely turned into rubble, while 15,000 people lost power in Norman alone. A rest stop for long-haul truck drivers on a highway east of Oklahoma City was also damaged. Several people sought refuge in big fridges and bathrooms there before the storm arrived, tearing the roof of the building and tipping over tractor-trailers.
