Louisburg — Storm damage and at least one minor injury were reported in Franklin County Wednesday evening.

Bricks were blown off a laundromat just outside Louisburg. A camper was also blown over, and a person inside the camper had minor injuries, WRAL's Beau Minnick reported from the scene.

The National Weather Service reported that numerous trees and power lines were down at Preacher Ball and Edward Best roads.
