I went and checked on my grandma because they were in there by themselves. It knocked all the power out. I’m just blessed to get away from it,” said Lang.Three mobile homes in its path on Cedar Creek Landing just south of Mount Vernon never stood a chance.Thankfully, nobody was inside.Threatt is the property owner of the mobile homes.
