High schoolers use tornado as prom pic backdrop

WRAY, CO (WTVD) -- At least five people were injured in the eastern Colorado city of Wray after a tornado flipped tractors, ripped through outbuildings and destroyed mobile homes over the weekend.

However, a high school couple didn't let the tornados stop them from taking prom photos - they even went so far as to use it as a backdrop.

Ali Marintzer's mom, Heidi, snapped the pictures before the big dance.

The pair was all smiles despite that ominous scene behind them.

At least seven tornadoes touched down in Colorado, mostly over rural land, as massive storms swept through the area.
