Tornadoes have ripped through Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi on Tuesday, killing at least 16 people and injuring dozens.

At least six tornadoes touched down between Oxford, Miss., and Jackson, Tenn., said a National Weather Service spokesman. More than 30 people were injured in the two states, hospital officials said.

Tornado warnings were also rolling across Kentucky, and Kentucky State Police said one person suffered minor injuries when a mobile home turned over in southwestern Kentucky.
