PESHAWAR:

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Shaken residents spent New Year`s Day sifting through the wreckage wrought by tornadoes that moved land in various states on the final day of 2010, killing seven people in two states and injuring dozens.

Six of the victims - three in Missouri and 3 in Arkansas - died Friday as tornadoes fueled by unusually warm air pummeled the South and Midwest.
