A tornado heavily damaged a large Pfizer pharmaceutical plant in North Carolina on Wednesday, ripping parts of its roofs and scattering large quantities of medicine stored at the factory.
“I’ve got reports of 50,000 pallets of medicine that are strewn across the facility and damaged through the rain and the wind,” Nash County Sheriff Keith Stone said of the large Pfizer manufacturing complex in Rocky Mount, a city in Edgecombe and Nash counties. He noted he hasn’t been able to confirm the extent of the damage.
