Tornado in Eagle razes six homes

A tornado raked southwestern Waukesha County on Monday night, flattening six houses in Eagle, damaging others and causing at least minor injuries. With power outages, it was so dark that it was difficult to immediately assess the extent of the damage, Eagle Village President Richard Spurrell said. But a walk through a neighborhood just southeast of the village center revealed toppled trees everywhere and houses that looked as if a giant had stepped on them.
