Suspected Tornado Tears Through Wal-Mart in Alabama

A suspected tornado tore through a Wal-Mart and a neighboring sports outlet in Troy, Alabama, flipping trucks and tractor-trailers in the parking lot and injuring at least five people late Thursday, NBC News reported.

"We heard a loud noise," Walmart employee Sarah Brookins told the Troy Messenger. "All of a sudden the wind was blowing in the store. We saw dust blowing through the door."

Two of those injured were inside the store when the storm struck while a third was in a truck that was overturned, Mayor Jason Reeves said. A total of three people were taken to a local hospital, Reeves added.
