A possible tornado touched down in rural Van Zandt County Thursday not far from where a deadly twister hit in Canton less than two weeks ago.
It happened about 4 p.m. in the town of Wills Point, about seven miles North of Canton.
Melissa Horn was home alone when her back porch was ripped apart and the front bricks were peeled off the front of her house.
“My biggest fear, I’ve lived through it and I’m OK,” she said. “I just hated having to be here by myself and going through that.”
She said she jumped in her bathtub when she heard a loud roar.
“I was literally jumping up and down in my bathtub,” she said. “I was scared. I was screaming. And it was over. I think I made more noise than the tornado did.”
