Tornado damages Georgia high school

A tornado that ripped through Newnan, Georgia, early Friday caused heavy damage at the town's high school.

Video from WSB-TV in Atlanta showed toppled bricks, splintered wood and broken windows.

Reports of tornado damage in the Newnan area began coming in shortly after midnight. Trees were toppled and power lines downed, knocking out service by the local utility.

Newnan police urged the public in a Facebook post to "get off the roads" while emergency officials surveyed the damage.

Storms killed five people in Alabama Thursday but there have been no deaths reported in Georgia.
