A FRIGHTENED DOG ATOP HIS HOUSE TESTIFIES TO THE FEAR GENERATED BY THE TWISTER.
Police chief estimates $1 million storm damage
KANSAS CITY, MO. — (UPI)
— A tornado that one witness said looked like a a "giant kite with a long tail" popped down in suburban Overland Park, Kan.
Tuesday and destroyed or heavily damaged about 50 houses.
Overland Park Police chief John O. Kenyon Jr. estimated damage at more than $1 million.
THERE WERE no serious injuries. The twister narrowly missed an elementary school
where 450 children were about to be dismissed from class.
At least six twisters hopscotched across Johnson County, Kansas and south Kansas City, Mo. but the Overland Park funnel was the only one which caused considerable damage.
The twister—a white one that shot out of a fast-moving storm front—first struck in an open area less than a mile from its main target. Then it dipped into a row of two-story and split
level houses in the $25,000 class,
scattering debris along a twoblock path.
Overland Park is a Kansas City, Mo. suburb, about 15 miles southwest of the downtown area.
