At least six people died Saturday after severe tornadoes touched down in parts of Tennessee, officials said.<\/p>\n

Three people were also died due to the tornadoes in Nashville, Nashville’s Emergency Operations confirmed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“This is a sad day for our community. We are praying for those who are injured, lost loved ones, and lost their homes. This community pulls together like no other and we will be here until the end,” Montgomery County Mayor Wes Golden said in a statement.<\/p>\n

“This is devastating news<\/a> and our hearts are broken for the families of those who lost loved ones. The City stands ready to help them in their time of grief,” Pitts said in a statement.<\/p>\n
