Greensburg, Kan. – A man who was struck by debris and suffered brain damage when a tornado destroyed this town in May died Wednesday, making him the 12th victim of the storm.
Max McColm, 77, of Liberal was staying with his daughter, Beverly Volz, while recovering from shoulder surgery when the tornado hit May 4.
Ross McColm of Lakewood said his grandfather was hit in the head with a large piece of metal. He fell into a coma and was taken to a Wichita hospital. At the end of June, he was moved to a long-term care center in Overland Park.
He regained partial consciousness in mid-July, said son Matthew McColm, also of Lakewood.
