we intercepted the cell as it was forming in tuscaloosa and made it to concord shorty before it come thru, it was roughly 5 miles from where i was shooting video ion concord just before it crossed 15th st, we continued to chase it as it was off to our south headed towards concord, we made it as far as we could then when it went thru the neighborhood there we we was one of the first medical ppl in as concord was pulling up while we was hiking in, just past 3 trees down it was utter chaos, ppl was hollering for help literally screwaming 5 minutes after it went thru there, jack segars heating and air's building well none of the building was there, we seen part of it across the road up in the trees, concord highlands baptist church was gone, their church bus was 1/2 mile away,
one of the first rescues we did was this little girl, she got picked up and thrown 600 yards and dropped, she was barely alive, all she would respond to was wen we was putting an iv in, she had major head injuries, 10 foot behind where we was working with her we noticed 3 that didnt make it, it basically looked like a bomb went off and the damage was exactly the same as april 8, 1998 wen it come thru 4 miles down from this path.
