BOYERTOWN, Pa. (AP) – Severe weather has caused widespread damage across Pennsylvania and claimed the lives of a pregnant woman and her 9-year-old son whose car was swept away by floodwaters. Douglass Township Police Chief John Dzurek says the car was swept down the Manatawny Creek for about a half-mile on Thursday, while the woman was on the phone with emergency officials. In New Jersey, the second tornado in a week touched down in the same town.
