DIEHLSTADT, Mo., June 5 (UPI) -- A 70-year-old man and two of his sons were killed when a powerful storm destroyed their mobile home in southeastern Missouri, authorities said.

Weather officials had not determined whether the Monday night storm was a tornado, KMOX-TV, St. Louis, reported.

The victims were identified as Loy Miller and his sons, Jasper Miller, 50, and Randy Miller, 48.

They were in the mobile home in Diehlstadt northeast of Sikeston in Scott County when the storm hit.

KMOX reported several other homes and sheds were damaged when the storm passed through after 8:30 p.m.
