JEFFERSONVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say one man was
injured when strong storms overturned recreational vehicles at an Ohio
campground.
The line of storms on Sunday afternoon ripped through
the Walnut Lake campground in Jeffersonville between Columbus and
Cincinnati. Media reports say the injured man was in an RV that flipped
several times in the high straight-line winds.
He was taken to a hospital but is expected to be OK.
Authorities
also closed Interstate 71 because of downed power lines and trees in
that area. Traffic backed up for miles as crews cleared the highway.
