A trailer factory worker was killed when the twister struck.
Marshall County Emergency Management Director Robert Chaney told The Associated Press the person’s body was found about a fourth of a mile from J&I Manufacturing, a trailer factory outside town where the suspected twister hit just as the workforce was leaving for the day, causing severe damage.

The NWS said supercell thunderstorms produced "multiple tornadoes" in the region.
The storm system is blamed for several deaths across the region, including three people in Polk County, Texas.
The NWS Storm Prediction Center (SPC) said there were preliminary reports of 26 tornadoes throughout the day Wednesday across the Southern Plains, with the number likely to go up as the severe weather moves further east.
