At least three people have been killed in possible tornadoes in the US state of Indiana, according to media reports, as violent storms rip through the region, including neighbouring Ohio.
The trio were killed at a trailer home park in Winchester, Indiana, about 113km northeast of the state capital Indianapolis, on Thursday, NBC News reported, citing state police.
The Indiana State Police did not immediately respond to requests for comment or additional information.
The National Weather Service said it could not confirm that a tornado touched down in Winchester, but that it was "likely" judging by the damage and images taken by people on the ground.
The storms were part of a night of violent weather that stretched from northeast Texas to Ohio.
Several small towns near Winchester also suffered heavy damage from suspected tornadoes.
