Tornadoes Rip through the Midwest

Nearly two dozen tornadoes ripped through the Midwest last night, flipping cars, knocking out power for thousands and injuring one person severely.

In Austin, Minn., one possible tornado tore through the northern side of the town, causing damage estimates in the millions and injuring several horses.

"I started running down the road, ran, looked up in the sky and saw a bunch of debris up in the sky, circling around like crazy," one eye witness said.

Tim Sherno, from ABC News' Minneapolis affiliate KSTP, visited Austin to survey the damage. - ABC News Story
