Blue Grass Tornado

June 15, 2001 By admin

Residents in a Davenport suburb are cleaning up today from last night’s tornado. The sound of a freight train rumbled through Blue Grass last night as the tornado bore down, but today the sounds of chain saws rip through the area. Bill Mitchell lives on one of the streets in Blue Grass hardest hit by the tornado, and he believes a second twister struck in a nearby wooded area. Mitchell lost five trees in his yard, and the gutters were ripped off his house. His neighbors lost their roofs.
