5 Killed as Tornadoes Tear Through Central Oklahoma and St. Louis Area Brandon Sullivan and Brett Wright, storm chasers from TornadoTitans.com, captured terrifying images near Shawnee, Okla. About 50 people were hurt, five critically, but meteorologists said the storm's fury did not match that of the twister nearly two weeks ago. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said troopers found the bodies of a woman and an infant near their vehicle near Union City. Another person died in El Reno, according to Amy Elliott, a spokeswoman for the state Medical Examiner. Details on the other two deaths were not known early Saturday morning. KFOR-TV, the local NBC affiliate, was providing live online coverage. As the storm approached, the National Weather Service issued an unusual "dangerous" tornado emergency for parts of central Oklahoma and Oklahoma City area as the multiple tornadoes carved paths of destruction from west to east across the middle of the state, flipping cars and tractor-trailers, knocking down power lines and ripping off roofs. The storm also caused flash flooding, submerging cars caught on roads. Also on Friday night, another tornado was reported to have touched down north of St. Louis, Mo., prompting the cancellation of the Cardinals baseball game and resulting in multiple reports of damage and injuries. This photo appeared on the Facebook page of the St. Louis television news station, KSDK. In Oklahoma City and the surrounding area, there were reports of high water, flash flooding and electrical outages, but no real structural damage, said Albert Ashwood, a spokesman for the Oklahoma Emergency Management office. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol told The Associated Press that several motorists were injured and numerous vehicles damaged, and that a few motorists appeared to be missing. After several hours of warnings across central Oklahoma that residents should be on high alert, the tornado warnings expired soon after 9 p.m. Friday. Then the work began to assess the damage and identify the dead and injured. After the warning expired, the Weather Service posted a map to show where the tornado had traveled. Sean Schofer, a storm chaser, posted this photo on Twitter of a Weather Channel vehicle damaged by the storm. An evacuation was ordered during the playoff hockey game at the Cox Convention Center, as both players and the crowd were ordered out of the arena into the parking garages. Passengers and staff at the Will Rogers World Airport southwest of Oklahoma City were directed to underground tunnels. Power failures led to the cancellation of all flights in and out of the airport Friday night. Local news outlets reported that 65,000 customers were without power in central Oklahoma. An NBC correspondent, Janet Shamlian, was among those in the airport tunnels. She later reported seeing debris, high waters and no power outside the airport. In addition to the high winds, residents in and around Oklahoma City are dealing with flash flooding, according to Jim Cantore of the Weather Channel.
