IRVING, Texas (AP) - Cowboys special teams coach Joe DeCamillis
was among 12 people injured when 64 mph winds - just shy of tornado
strength - ripped through the roof of the team's indoor practice
facility during a rookie minicamp Saturday.
Former Texas A&M quarterback Stephen McGee was among those practicing. McGee confirmed to KBTX reporter John Wilson, via text message, that he is OK.
The storm hit while 27 players were going through workouts.
There were about 70 people in the facility, counting coaches, other
team personnel and media, officials said.
Ten of the injured were taken by emergency vehicles. Two others
went to hospitals on their own.
Dr. Paul Pepe, head of emergency medical services for Dallas
County, says he didn't think anybody had life-threatening injuries.
