US: Rescuers search for tornado victims

Crews searched today for more victims of deadly tornados that killed at least 55 people and injured hundreds more as they tore across five US states, ripping off a shopping mall roof, demolishing mobile homes and blowing apart warehouses.

It was the country’s deadliest barrage of twisters in almost 23 years. Dozens of tornados ploughed across Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama.
