EPA / UPG

A tornado struck near Rome, Italy, Sunday, killing at least two and injuring dozens, the Weather Channel reports.

A 25-year-old man was killed in the city of Ladispoli, a coastal town north of the capital, when a cornice fell from a building and struck him on the head.

The tornado that struck around 6 p.m. local time also claimed the life of a 74-year-old man in Cesano, near Lake Bracciano.

Dozens of buildings were damaged in Ladispoli by the twister and an undetermined number of injuries have been reported. Several homes were evacuated amid fears of gas leaks.

The Ladispoli City Council announced on Sunday that schools would be closed on Monday.
