No one was injured.

Lake also reported that neighbors up the hill from that house had some damage done to a barn and a rabbit hutch also became airborne. The rabbits were unharmed.

The tornado, which covered about one-third of a mile, hit north of Titusville in the Matthews Run Road area.

According to Lake, dispatchers at the 911 Center could see the tornado.
