Tornadoes kill 2 in northwestern Indiana and raze buildings in Kankakee, Illinois

Tornadoes have killed at least two people in northwest Indiana and leveled buildings in Kankakee, Illinois. The Newton County Coroner's Office on Wednesday confirmed the deaths of an elderly couple in their home in Lake Village, Indiana. A volunteer fire department in the area says less than 10 people were hurt in Tuesday's storms. In Illinois, the Kankakee County Sheriff’s Office says a tornado caused extensive damage in the small suburb of Aroma Park. In video posted on social media, the twister rips across a field of farmland near an airport while cars line the road. Parts of Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio remain under tornado watch Wednesday.
