ATLANTA (AP) - A system of powerful storms packing tornadoes passed from Alabama into southwest Georgia, hitting a hospital and causing at least nine deaths statewide, a state official said early Friday.
The storm, which swept through the state Thursday night, caused six deaths in Baker County, according to a fire chief there, said Buzz Weiss of the Georgia Emergency Management Agency.
Weiss said he did not know if the six died in the same incident or not.
