The tornado that struck a home in a rural part of Martin County, Indiana on Sunday evening, claimed the life of one person and injured another. Officials pronounced the man inside the home dead at the scene and the woman was taken to the hospital due to the injuries she sustained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to WXIN-TV, the tornado was part of a wider storm system that also spawned a large and violent tornado in Johnson County, south of Indianapolis, causing damage to at least 75 homes. The tornado was on the ground for about 15 minutes, resulting in severe property damage, with numerous trees uprooted due to the high winds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Power lines were brought down throughout the 4.8 km (3 miles) area affected by the tornado, resulting in widespread power outages. Residents affected by the damage could potentially be without electricity for several days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
