April 28, 2014
MAYFLOWER, Arkansas (AP) _ A tornado system ripped through the central U.S. and left at least 17 dead in a violent start to this year's storm season, officials said. The tornado touched down Sunday about 10 miles west of Little Rock, Arkansas, then carved an 80-mile path of destruction as it passed through or near several suburbs north of the state capital, including Vilonia. It grew to be a half-mile wide and remained on the ground for much of that route, killing 16 people in that state. T
