JUST IN: The National Weather Service has confirmed 12 tornadoes in Illinois Friday, including an EF-1 tornado in the Davis Junction-Belvidere area.
The EF-1 tornado near Belvidere traveled nearly 28 miles across portions of Ogle, Winnebago and Boone counties within just 25 minutes, with peak winds of 100 MPH and a max width of 900 yards, NWS said.
Livingston's sister Deanna Hicks said he was attending the concert at the theatre with his son Alex, who Hicks said is "OK." Officials believe fellow concert-goers tried to save the 50-year-old man who died by pulling him from debris that landed on him, they said during a Saturday morning press conference.Belvidere Fire Chief Shawn Schadle said first responders were on the scene of the collapse within two minutes, since the fire station is just across the street. The Boone County Sheriff's Office confirmed multiple ambulances were called to the scene, and several people were seen being taken away on stretchers.
Officials said more than 40 people were treated at hospitals. They previously said 28 people were injured in the collapse.
