The death toll from the massive tornado that tore through Joplin, Missouri, Sunday night has risen to 116 with hundreds of people reported injured. Local officials expect the body count to rise as rescue workers continue to search for survivors. A third of the city has reportedly been destroyed. Some 2,000 buildings were struck by the storm, including a high school and a nursing home. Among the worst hit was St. John’s Regional Medical Center, where people in the first floor emergency room were sucked out of windows and into the parking lot, killing five patients. Nearly a mile wide, the tornado is one of the deadliest in U.S. history.
