 ENTERPRISE, Ala. (AP) - Tornadoes ripped through Alabama and killed at least seven people Thursday, including five at a high school where students became pinned under debris when a roof collapsed, state officials said.
Crews dug through piles of rubble beneath portable lights at Enterprise High School well into the night, looking for other victims. In the chaotic hours after the storm, reports of the death toll varied wildly, at one point reaching as high as 18 dead.
With the search continuing, "the exact number is honestly not known," said John Pallas, the Coffee County emergency management director in Enterprise.
