A suspected tornado touched down in Mercer County on Tuesday afternoon, toppling trees and downing power lines, as well as causing some damage to numerous homes.
Footage from an ABC 6 helicopter crew showed multiple large trees uprooted in West Windsor Township, and parts of the roof of an apartment building blown off.
Closer to home, a downpour drenched Lakewood and surrounding areas, with several bouts of hail raining down from the furious clouds above.
