The city of Greenfield's storm shelter was locked when tornado sirens sounded Saturday, according to a report from KY3:
When residents went to the town's public shelter to take cover, they found themselves locked out, and potentially in more danger.
Police couldn't reach the person who has a key to the school and its shelter. The police chief says every officer will now receive a key, ensuring the shelter will be opened when weather threatens.
Every police officer having a key didn't help a town of Alma, Arkansas on May 8, 2008...maybe Greenfield should invest in a system that unlocks the doors when the tornado siren sounds. This situation should not be a common occurence.
