Cape Town - Emergency services were still mopping up on Sunday evening after a deadly storm in Ficksburg, in the Free State, in which a 9-year-old boy died when a wall fell on him.
Police spokesperson Phumelelo Dlamini told News24 that 42 people had been injured.
Some of them were taken to a hospital in Bloemfontein, while others were being treated locally, he said.
Dlamini said 100 houses were damaged by the strong wind and not 1 000 as had earlier been reported.

A link about a Tornado in Free State popped up in my news feed on Twitter (obviously I had to check it out) and it lead me to the You Magazine fan page. I know we don’t usually post stuff like this but it’s a TORNADO! It was seen tearing through Ficksburg in Free State a couple of hours ago… That’s just a little too crazy… If anyone has any more pictures, please send them to crew@mycitybynight.co.za

Tropical storm watch for
Avalon Peninsula South continued
Hurricane Ophelia is forecast to track close to the southeastern portion of Newfoundland Monday morning with a possibility of tropical storm conditions.
A tropical storm watch means that a tropical storm or an incipient tropical storm condition poses a possible threat to the specified areas within 36 hours.
Given the close range of hurricane Ophelia's track to the Avalon Peninsula Monday morning, a tropical storm watch is being issued by the Canadian Hurricane Centre for that region. This means that there is a possibility of tropical storm force winds (60 gusting to 90 km/h) from Ophelia.
