The broadcaster News 19 WLTX has published footage of the devastating aftermath of a tornado that hit Lee County in the US state of Alabama.
Destroyed buildings, damaged cars, huge amounts of debris, as well as many fallen trees have been captured on the video. It also shows a collapsed metal structure blocking part of a road.
A storm warning is still in effect in the region.
