Employees are cleaning up after high winds ripped through a Portland Industrial Park on Fred White Boulevard. Part of the roof was blown of the Diado Corporation Building. A cinder block wall at the rear of the building collapsed. Company officials say a cleaning crew was inside when the storm hit Thursday night but no one was injured. The damage has slowed the company's shipping operation but the production lines are running as normal. Shoals Technology also sustained damage. The storm left a large hole in the roof and some materials were damaged by water. Portland Fire Chief Al West says the damage is isolated and likely caused by straight line winds.

TBI: Women more likely family violence victims
June 20, 2013 08:10 GMT
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A new study of domestic violence in Tennessee last year found women were nearly two times more likely to be victimized than men and children were the victims in 16 percent of all family violence cases.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation put out a report this week analyzing crime statistics from law enforcement agencies across the state. Their findings show that nearly 15 percent of all crimes reported were domestic in nature.
The study looked at the relationships between victims and offenders as well as the influence of drugs and alcohol on family violence. The study found that more than 17 percent of family violence involves drugs or alcohol, with alcohol being the most common.
