Tornado alley was impacted again on Tuesday, May 24, 2011.
Much of the damage Tuesday came from one large tornado that touched down north of Lookeba in Caddo County and moved northeast into Canadian County, where it killed people on I-40 and destroyed homes and businesses west and north of El Reno, Oklahoma. The twister destroyed more homes in the Piedmont area and caused serious injuries before it moved into southeastern Kingfisher County, damaging homes south of Cashion, and continued into Logan County, causing more damage. The storm continued to cause damage into Payne County near Stillwater. Jerry Smith, Canadian County emergency management director, said numerous injuries were reported along I-40 near El Reno. A gas line explosion also was reported in El Reno. Tom and Carla Chronister took cover at their business, Festivities in El Reno. They went home after the storm cleared and found their house on North Highway 81 in ruins. “It took everything far, far away,” Tom Chronister told a reporter at NewsOK.
In the news today, due to a tornado strike, El Reno is historically significant in cryptozoology, for it is a town that has a place in the “southern ape” archives. It was there an amazing find was made that was forever made silly by the mere use of a media-inflicted name. Can a silly name for a cryptid incident make us ignore it? What has been the impact on a significant find due to how it was initially labeled? Probably because of its name, you have never seriously considered what was found there. Let us revisit that piece of the evidence, the matter of the El Reno Ape Prints, today.
