Tornado rips through Oklahoma town still recovering from 2013 storm
One person has been reported killed after a tornado touched down in northeastern Oklahoma Wednesday, Sputnik reported.
The fatality occurred, along with several injuries, at a trailer park in Sand Springs, a town several miles west of Tulsa, according to ABC News.
The first report from the National Weather Service indicated the formation of a tornado about 60 miles east of Tulsa, heading west. By evening, at least 67,800 power outages had been reported.
The National Weather Service called it an "extremely dangerous tornado" and warned area residents, "You are in a life threatening situation."
