'I remember taking my eyes off of him for a second, and then he was gone.' Autumn Kirks was rescued after a tornado demolished a candle factory in Mayfield, Kentucky, where she was working. Her boyfriend who was also working at the factory remains missing.
“They said, ’Duck and cover!″ she recalled. “I pulled my safety goggles down, jumped under the closest thing, and seconds later I looked to my left and instead of wall there was sky and lightning and just destruction everywhere.”
“I remember taking my eyes off of him for a second, and then he was gone,” she said. “I don’t know where he went -- don’t have any idea.” Kirks said she and three co-workers were trapped under a concrete wall, but that a co-worker lifted the wall to rescue them.
