Poor foolish woman...could have cost her her life...

Jinx, back on Good Friday I was working in the outside L&G when the Tornado Sirens went off. A manager was there to lock the gate but before he could close them, a man came running toward us clutching a toddler to him.

I stopped him and said, "Sir, don't go out in that. Please stay here and get to shelter in the back of the store."

He just kept moving, saying "I have to get out of here. I have to get home."

That was the night that Lambert International Airport got hit and parts of Bridgeton were devastated by a tornado.

As for why I didn't stop him, I can't. We can't stop ppl from leaving if they are adamant, all we can do is try to get them to see reason.

Luckily, we were not in the tornado's path but I still say to myself when I think of this, "What a dumbass. To risk your childs life in that situation."

You know things are bad, but you don’t think of such things as this. God help the people of Joplin.
