City Emergency Management Agency (CEMA) Commissioner Sarah Russell has been suspended after failing to activate tornado sirens in St. Louis.
Prior to Friday’s deadly tornado, Russell left her city’s residents under-prepared by not deploying the tornado sirens. Five people died and many others were injured.
