OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Officials say one structure has been destroyed and several others have been damaged, but no injuries have been reported after possible tornadoes touched down in southwestern Oklahoma.

Tillman County emergency management director Jeffrey Rector said tornadoes damaged three structures between Tipton and Frederick Monday afternoon. Rector said the Oklahoma State University extension field office was demolished, and a hay barn at a dairy was damaged.

He also said the residents of a home two miles south of Tipton were trapped after their house was damaged, but they were rescued and suffered no injuries.

Rector says a storm chaser's vehicle was overturned, but it's not known if he was hurt. He says the man got into another vehicle and continued on the chase.
