BERLIN: A storm that swept through western Germany on Friday has killed at least one person and injured dozens, local authorities said on Saturday.
In Rhineland-Palatinate state, a 38-year-old man died after he was electrocuted when he entered his flooded basement, the police in the city of Koblenz said.
In North Rhine-Westphalia state, authorities said a "tornado" wrecked the city of Paderborn, injuring 43 people, including 13 seriously, the city’s mayor said on Saturday.

Police estimated the damage caused by the tornado at "several million" euros. The storm followed abnormally high temperatures for the time of year.
