Tornado survivor recalls harrowing experience: ‘I did not think I was gonna make it’
Kyanna Parsons-Perez, who made it out of the factory safely, opened up about what it was like to be inside the Mayfield, Kentucky, building when the roof gave way.
Parsons-Perez noted that there were a lot of Hispanic people who worked at the factory so she could hear people"praying in Spanish and just hollering." After she called 911, Parsons-Perez started livestreaming on Facebook in an effort to try and get more help to the scene. Parsons-Perez, whose birthday is today, and the rest of the employees were trapped for two hours as they waited for help to arrive. With every passing minute, Parsons-Perez felt like she wouldn't make it out alive, especially when something fell on top of her after the roof of the factory collapsed.
