Violent storms and tornadoes have torn across the US south and midwest, killing at least seven people and downing power lines and trees, smashing homes and upturning cars across multiple states.

The outbreak of storms and tornadoes has resulted in at least seven deaths in Tennessee and Missouri, with further fatalities expected to be confirmed. One of the victims has been named: a 68-year-old man named Garry Moore who was a fire chief in Cape Girardeau county, Missouri. At least a dozen injuries have also been reported from the storms.

The White House has approved a state of emergency request from Tennessee, where rising floodwaters have menaced Nashville.

Indiana, meanwhile, has declared its own state of emergency, activating 50 national guard members to deal with severe weather that has affected 41 of the state’s counties.

“In times like these, I’m immensely grateful for the soldiers who are on the ground ensuring Hoosier safety,” said Mike Braun, Indiana’s governor.
