EAR FALLS, Ontario - Two Oklahoma men were killed and one remains missing after a tornado ripped through a tourist resort in northwestern Ontario, a meteorologist said Friday.

Geoff Coulson, a meteorologist with Environment Canada, said the men were inside a cabin when it was ripped from the ground and thrown into a lake as the storm passed through Fisherman's Cove Resort Thursday night.

The two bodies were found in the water just offshore, police said. Five other people inside a second cabin suffered minor injuries, Coulson said.
