    KNOX COUNTY, Ky. (LEX 18) — Tyler Crawford is a farmer in Knox County, about 30 minutes from where the tornado hit Laurel County Friday night. Through social media, he offered his land, feed and care to any tornado victims who have nowhere to go with their farm animals - for free. He will even come and transport them from your property to his. "We can handle anything that eats grain or hay, sheep, goats, cows, horses, ponies, kids ponies," said Crawford.
