String of Tornadoes Sweep Through Southern Missouri, Killing 1 Child
CAULFIELD, Mo. — Tornadoes swept through southern Missouri around dawn Thursday, damaging homes and businesses and killing at least one person a few hours after another twister touched down in Kansas, authorities said.
A 7-year-old child was killed in Missouri, and there were reports of people missing from the Caulfield area, said State Highway Patrol Sgt. Marty Elmore.
Howell County Sheriff Robbie Crites identified the victim as Elizabeth Croney, whose mother, father and a brother were injured when a tornado hit their mobile home in a rural wooded area 16 miles southwest of West Plains.
