(FOX NEWS) – Tornadoes and severe storms swept across several states Friday night, leaving in their wake several deaths, numerous injuries and severe structural damage, according to reports.

Affected states included Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky and Tennessee.

Major incidents included heavy damage to an Amazon warehouse in Edwardsville, Illinois, where dozens of workers were reportedly trapped inside the building, and the destruction of a nursing home in Arkansas, where at least two people were killed and five were hurt, according to reports.
