NavarreDon Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 NWS Jackson MS @NWSJacksonMS It's believed that a long track, significant tornado tracked through Marion, Lamar & Forrest counties. Two teams will be assessing tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witness Protection Program Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 The segment from 4:20+ appears to be from a handheld camera being moved about and zoomed by the driver. Why would an officer with a dash cam be messing with a handheld phone for video? Wouldn't there be police radio chatter in the background, and likely he reporting in info at times during that video if it was an officer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow pretty impressive but that damage to the school is pretty extensive, really lucky no one was killed and that it was Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
