Authorities say 29 people were injured. The University of Oklahoma Medical Center says it took in 17 people, including four children, and that 14 remained hospitalized Monday. Officials says victims taken to other facilities have been treated and released
The National Weather Service says the tornado had wind speeds of up to 165 mph (266 kph).
Stitt says he spoke with President Donald Trump, who expressed concern for the victims and noted federal assistance was available.
