MITCHELL, S.D. (AP) — Weekend storms left pockets of damage across Davison County in southeastern South Dakota.

Hail and high winds Saturday night flattened corn fields and toppled a mobile home north of Mount Vernon. Farms suffered damage to grain bins, buildings and equipment. A truck pulling a trailer on Interstate 90 was blown off the road.

National Weather Service meteorologist Kerry Hanko tells The Daily Republic newspaper that wind speeds reached 90 mph, and hail the size of golf balls was reported.

Chief Sheriff’s Deputy Steve Harr tells KELO-TV that no injuries were reported.
