NASHVILLE, Tenn.?Tornadoes battered parts of Tennessee and Kentucky on Sunday, destroying homes and sending people to hospitals. One man was killed when his home was destroyed by high winds.

The tornados were part of a powerful storm system that swept across the Tennessee and Ohio valleys during the night with heavy rain, large hail and high wind.

Tornadoes touched down in the Middle Tennessee counties of Rutherford and Cannon, where at least 10 people were injured and an undetermined number of homes were damaged, emergency officials said.

When the storms crossed western Kentucky, straight line wind destroyed a house at Irvington and killed a man who lived there, officials said. A woman found in the wreckage was taken to a hospital.

Tornados were reported elsewhere in Kentucky, downing power lines, trees and homes.
