VIDEO: Courtenay Mayor Bob Wells and family shaken but safe after being caught in Alberta hailstorm

Courtenay Mayor Bob Wells and his family are safe, but their van was severely damaged in an Alberta hailstorm Monday afternoon. While travelling to Manitoba for a family reunion, the Wells family got caught in a torrential storm, just south of Red Deer, Alberta. Hailstones, some reportedly the size of grapefruits, battered vehicles along the Queen Elizabeth II Highway. Wells posted a Facebook Live video afterwards, showing the extensive damage to his vehicle.
