NEW DELHI: At least 5 people died and 35 were injured after multiple tornadoes swept through Iowa causing a large-scale destruction in Greenfield, the officials said on Wednesday.
The Iowa Department of Public Safety reported Tuesday’s tornadoes killed four people in the Greenfield area, while the Adams County Sheriff’s Office claimed a fifth victim, a woman whose car was thrown off the road, was killed by a twister about 25 miles (40 kilometers away).
It further anticipated the number of victims to be much higher.
The Greenfield tornado ripped through the community of 2,000, roughly 55 miles (88.5 kilometers) southwest of Des Moines, destroying homes, splintering trees, and crumpling cars. The tornado also ripped apart and collapsed enormous power-generating wind turbines many kilometers outside of the city.
