WYTHE Co., Va. (WDBJ) - After severe storms swept through southwest Virginia Saturday night, a family is left without a home.
Photos of the damage along Kiser Road, between Rural Retreat and Wytheville, show where intense winds destroyed a home and flipped a shed onto several vehicles.
The family, including three small children, lost everything.
Family members say no one was injured, and they’re staying with relatives until they can rebuild or find a suitable place to go.
The Red Cross was on site assisting overnight.
