Deer Park Police Department video from storm
A strong storm passed through the Deer Park area around 1 p.m. Thursday. A camera caught the storm on camera.
"The people at the complex next door said they kind of watched it kind of jump over their apartments and land right on the roof," said Cheri Stokley.
Stokley’s uncle owns the clinic.
"We just got a phone call about damage to the office so we all kind of rushed up here, and it looks like a tornado hit the roof," she said.
The strong winds pulled off a good chunk of the roof.
"It looks like a can of tuna or something peeled back," said Stokley.
