| Eleven people were killed and more than 20 injured as violent storms rolled through parts of Georgia, authorities said Sunday. The reports came a day after at least four people were killed in southern Mississippi early Saturday when a tornado roared through the Hattiesburg area, leveling homes, ripping off roofs and tossing trees into roadways across the region. Catherine Howden, spokeswoman for the Georgia Emergency Management Agency, told USA TODAY that seven people were killed in Cook County and two each in Brooks and Berrien counties. The National Weather Service forecast a possible "major severe weather outbreak" into Sunday night.
