JACKSON, Miss. --
A tornado swept across Mississippi Saturday, damaging dozens of houses and injuring a so far unknown number of residents, emergency officials said.
The tornado touched down in Valley Park, Yazoo City and Durant, according to the National Weather Service.
Mississippi Emergency Management Agency spokesman Greg Flynn said officials in Warren, Yazoo and Holmes counties were conducting a "massive response." He did not immediately have information on injuries, but said the damage is extensive.
At least 20 houses were damaged and several people injured inYazoo City Saturday afternoon, emergency officials said. Yazoo City Mayor McArthur Straughter said the most extensive damage was reported along Highway 49.
American Medical Response officials said five Yazoo City residents were transported to local hospitals. Officials with King's Daughter Hospital said the injuries were pouring in Saturday afternoon.
"We have reports, apparently reliable, but personally, myself, unconfirmed -- I'm not at the scene -- that several homes have been damaged at Yazoo City," AMR ambulance spokesman Jim Pollard said.
Dan Turner, the spokesman for Gov. Haley Barbour, said open gas lines were reported in Yazoo City and urged residents to stay away from the area if they can.
Brenda Tillis, who is in Yazoo City, told 16 WAPT news that she saw a funnel cloud and damage on Route 16.
