By The Associated Press

OKLAHOMA CITY – Officials at two hospitals say they’re treating nearly 60 patients, including more than a dozen children, after a massive tornado hit the Oklahoma City suburbs.

Integris Southwest Medical Center spokeswoman Brooke Cayot says 10 of 37 patients being treated there Monday are in critical condition. Twelve are serious and 15 are listed in fair or good condition.

Five of the patients are children, including two who came from a devastated school where an Associated Press photographer saw several children being pulled from the rubble. Cayot could not confirm the children’s conditions.

Spokesman Scott Coppenbarger says another 20 patients are being treated at OU Medical Center. He says eight are children.
