COLUMBUS, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – Governor Mike DeWine has declared a state of emergency in 11 Ohio counties, including Logan County.
That’s where three people were killed in one of eight tornadoes that touched down in the state last week.
The Ohio National Guard is being sent in to assist with cleanup in the Indian Lake area of Logan County.
Closer to us, Richland and Crawford Counties in the Mansfield area are part of that declaration.
It was an EF-2 twister that damaged homes there, especially in the village of Plymouth.
