COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4/AP) – A powerful storm pummeled the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo with large hail, which injured 14 people and killed at least three animals. Medical personnel set up a triage at the entrance to the zoo.
Jenny Koch, the zoo’s marketing director, tells The Denver Post that two vultures and a duck were killed by the hail.
Baseball-sized hail fell in southern Colorado about 3 p.m. Monday.
