http://newsok.com/article/3841315/From his pickup, amateur storm chaser Richard Charles Henderson took a cellphone photo of the first tornado Friday and excitedly sent it to a friend.
Minutes later, that tornado would kill him.
Slay said the picture came in at 6:05 p.m. About 10 minutes later, Slay heard a loud popping noise over the phone.
Henderson cursed, and then asked Slay if he had heard the sound.
“I said, ‘Yeah, I heard it. What was it?' And he said, ‘It's debris hitting my pickup.' I said, ‘You better get your ##### out of there.' Then the phone went dead.
Henderson, of Hinton, was one of at least 18 people who died because of Friday's tornadoes and storms. His body was found near El Reno.
My condolences to his family and friends.
