VIDEO: After surveying Dodge County tornado damage, the National Weather Service has confirmed a fifth tornado ripped through the area on Thursday, May 15. They’ve determined the one in Juneau was an EF-2. Body camera video from the Dodge County Sheriff’s Office shows the tornado damage on Juneau’s Main Street. It shows first responders at Bruce Scott’s home after the tornado collapsed his roof.
“I was right at the front door, and I was heading for the stairs. It’s right in there, and I grabbed the door, and the roof came down,” Scott said. “I was under the pile. They had to dig me out.” Scott, 63, believes he was unconscious for a time but remembers hearing familiar voices while buried in the rubble. “All the neighbors were like, ‘Is Bruce in there? Is he in there?’ I can hear them. Something’s wrong. And they said, ‘Where are you?’ And they’re kicking the door. They couldn’t get it. Then, first responders got it,” he said. Authorities said firefighters broke through his front door and removed him from the rubble. The body camera footage shows one of the first responders walking Scott out of his home.
