Nation IN BRIEF : KANSAS : Rescuers End Search for Tornado Victims

Share
From Times Staff and Wire Reports

Rescuers concluded there were no more bodies in a flattened mobile-home park where a twister killed 14 people in Andover, Kan. Twisters that swept Kansas and Oklahoma on Friday killed 23, authorities said. The toll fell from the 28 reported Saturday as officials discovered some fatalities had been counted more than once. At least three more tornadoes touched down Sunday in two Kansas counties. In Wichita, raw sewage flowed into the Arkansas River as electricity for processing equipment remained out. In Washington, President Bush urged Americans to pray for the victims and promised to “do whatever we can to help.”
