Union Man Killed in Storm After Mobile Home Topples Over
UNION, SC (AP)– A South Carolina coroner says a 65-year-old man is dead after a storm toppled his mobile home.
The Union County Coroner’s Office said Monday that J.C. Matthews Jr. was dead by the time emergency help arrived at the scene of his destroyed home in Whitmire.
An autopsy is planned for Tuesday.
Authorities say Matthews’ brother rushed to the wreckage after seeing the mobile home and spoke to the injured man before calling for help.
