A tornado toppled construction cranes, damaged property and uprooted trees in its path on Monday in Val-d’Oise, north of Paris.
One person died and four others were seriously injured, officials said.
The town of Ermont, about 20 km (13 mi) northeast of Paris, was hardest hit by the sudden twister, which caused damage in several districts.
