i m erin burnett. out front, breaking news in the midwest. death and destruction, more severe weather tonight. a series of tornadoes ripped through five states, starting early this morning, leading a path of destruction in their wake. here is what we know at this moment. nine people so far confirmed dead. 100 are injured. more than 300 homes have been damaged or destroyed today. the twisters touched down in kansas, missouri, kentucky, illinois, and indiana. harrisburg, it hit the town just before 5:00 a.m. this morning. eric gregg said despite the loss of life and praurptd, operty, his town will endure. the images are stunning and disturbing. can you tell me when you found out about this? what you heard this morning when you woke up to this? well, actually, this morning, the alarm was going off, sirens were going off about ten till 5:00. i woke up, got my family up. i went outside and was trying to assess where the tornado was coming at. we had heard it was imminent, and it
the foundation and literally right next door is a home where there is almost no damage at all. this home lost a little siding and a broken window, beyond that, it s not really bad. that s what i always find very challenging in covering tornadoes. so much loss and then some people who are able to get out of the area with just their lives. today, of course, a number of people who are injured. 100 injuries or so reported. many of them came right from this area and no surprise because look at the damage here. people had to hold themselves out of the rubble, in many cases, or wait for rescuers to come in. we ll have a chance to talk to some of those victims, as well. want to introduce you to family members. can i bring you over here for one second. the the osmonds lost their mom yesterday. thank you for talking with us. you basically did this very walk right after the tornado hit. basically 24 hours ago i made this same walk that i just made this morning coming in to talk to you
