Aumsville, Oregon, was the victim of an unlikely tornado today. The tornado touched down at around noon on Tuesday, December 14th, leaving part of the town demolished. Jim Kusz, the public information office for the North Lincoln Fire and Rescue reported that, "Nobody was injured. Nobody was staying in the second floor rooms." Citizens are being advised to avoid the areas where damage has occurred due to dangers from fallen power lines and crumbling buildings. The Red Cross has responded and will most likely establish a shelter for displaced citizens of the town. A suitable location must be found first though, fortunately only a region of the town was damaged by the twister.
