The storm caused fatalities in Sullivan County, Indiana, Emergency Management Director Jim Pirtle said.

Houses and shopping centres were damaged in Arkansas and a theatre roof collapsed during a concert in Illinois.

The storm damaged houses and some residents were missing in the county seat of Sullivan, located near the Illinois state line about 152 km southwest of Indianapolis. AP

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
