Nov. 16--A mobile home park in Montgomery sustained heavy damage after being struck by an apparent tornado Wednesday, according to the Montgomery Emergency Communications Department.
Emergency responders were at the Sunshine Village Mobile Home Community near the intersection of Wares Ferry Road and North Boulevard at midday Wednesday.
Firefighters received a call at 11:22 a.m. to respond to mobile home park.
Nine mobile homes have been damaged. There were no reported injuries. There was a reported gas leak, but it has been shut off, Lt. D.L. Crenshaw of the Montgomery Fire Department said at the scene.
"It appears to be high winds or a possible tornado touchdown," Crenshaw said.
There were numerous power lines down in that area, and residents were asked to use extreme caution, said Sgt. Donna Mackey, a police spokeswoman.
