Carstairs boss Jordan Schaeffer said some of those homes were completely destroyed. He added that they have confirmed that five houses are 100 percent damaged or will be totally punished. They know that four of them are non-existent at that moment. He also said that on Sunday after 4:00 pm, Highway 2A was closed in the tornado zone. RCMP said the largest number of drivers were arriving in the area just to see the trouble they were causing.
They also added that an unknown woman gave him a reckless driving ticket that time he got distracted while driving and stopped in the middle of the road and parked his car and inadvertently started taking pictures. He was not following the rules at all, even after the police officers warned him and told him to go ahead and return to his house. Just because of that woman there was a lot of traffic on the road and it created a big problem. This is a very bad act of people. The public was not paying attention on the road.
Jordan said the number one priority for the public was his family after they were displaced by the most damage. They are trying to align with Victim Services with RCMP. They seek your complete safety and care about your mental and physical health. Many people are safe, but unfortunately, 20 chickens and 25 cows died in this catastrophic tornado. And a horse has to be put down.
