Four killed as storm Isaias hits US east coast

At least four people died as Tropical Storm Isaias made its way up the US Atlantic Coast, including two deaths at a North Carolina mobile home park that was struck by a tornado spun off by hurricane-force winds.

"It doesn't look real. It looks like something on TV. There's nothing there," Bertie County Sheriff John Holley told local reporters. "Vehicles are turned over. Vehicles are piled on top of each other. It's just very sad." Elsewhere, strong winds from the storm knocked down trees and power lines across Massachusetts, leaving more than 220,000 customers without power, CBS Boston reported.
