A tornado hit Perryton city of Texas on Thursday which left at least three people dead, media reports said.
According to reports, 100 others were injured in the town.
The city was left without power after the tornado ripped through the town.
The north and east sides of the small town saw significant damage, with trailer houses destroyed and communication towers downed, Perryton Fire Chief Paul Dutcher told ABC News.
The Texas Division of Emergency Management organized a team to come from Amarillo, Texas, and are sending an AmBus capable of transporting 10-12 patients, Dutcher said.
"We have a lot of patients in hospital who will need to be transported," Dutcher said.
There is currently no power to Perryton, Xcel Energy told ABC News.
"Our crews are arriving on site and are assisting in removing lines from cars and across the roads. We are patrolling the transmission feeds into the city and also assessing possible damage at the main substation in town. One of the three main transmission feeds into the city was apparently undamaged, but we deenergized it for safety reasons," Xcel Energy said in a statement as quoted by ABC News.
